Description

Covering a period of five hundred years, from the arrival of the Ottomans to the aftermath of the Arab uprisings, James McDougall presents an expansive new account of the up to date history of Africa’s largest country. Drawing on substantial new scholarship and over a decade of research, McDougall places Algerian society on the centre of the tale, tracing the continuities and the resilience of Algeria’s people and their cultures in the course of the dramatic changes and crises that have marked the rustic. Whether examining the emergence of the Ottoman viceroyalty within the early up to date Mediterranean, the 130 years of French colonial rule and the revolutionary war of independence, the Third World nation-building of the 1960s and 1970s, or the terrible violence of the 1990s, this book will appeal to all kinds of readers in African and Middle Eastern history and politics, in addition to those concerned about the broader affairs of the Mediterranean.
