French Army And Its African Soldiers - The Years Of Decolonization

de Ruth Ginio

50,79€ + 10% EM CARTÃO

DISPONIBILIDADE IMEDIATA

 As part of Frances opposition to the independence of its former colonies in the years following World War II, its army remained deeply invested in preventing the decolonization of the territories comprising French West Africa (FWA). Even as late as the 1950s, the French Army clung to the hope that it was possible to retain FWA as a colony, believing that its relations with African soldiers could offer the perfect model for continued ties between France and its West African territories. In The French Army and Its African Soldiers Ruth Ginio examines the French Armys attempts to win the hearts and souls of the local population at a time of turbulence and uncertainty regarding future relations between the colonizer and colony. Through the prism of the armys relationship with its African soldiers, Ginio considers how the armys activities and political position during FWAs decolonization laid the foundation for Frances continued active presence in some of these territories after independence. This project is the first thorough examination of the French Armys involvement in West Africa before independence and provides the essential historical background to understanding Frances complex postcolonial military relations with its former territories in Africa.

Medical Imperialism In French North Africa - Regenerating The Jewish Community Of Colonial Tunis

de Richard C. Parks

46,38€ + 10% EM CARTÃO

DISPONIBILIDADE IMEDIATA

 French-colonial Tunisia in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries witnessed shifting concepts of identity, including varying theories of ethnic essentialism, a drive toward modernization, and imperialist interpretations of science and medicine. As French colonizers worked to realize ideas of a modern city and empire, they undertook a program to significantly alter the physical and social realities by which the people of Tunisia lived, often in ways that continue to influence life today.Medical Imperialism in French North Africa demonstrates the ways in which diverse members of the Jewish community of Tunis received, rejected, or reworked myriad imperial projects devised to foster the social, corporeal, and moral regeneration of their community. Buttressed by the authority of science and medicine, regenerationist schemes such as urban renewal projects and public health reforms were deployed to destroy and recast the cultural, social, and political lives of Jewish colonial subjects. Richard C. Parks expands on earlier scholarship to examine how notions of race, class, modernity, and otherness shaped these efforts. Looking at such issues as the plasticity of identity, the collaboration and contention between French and Tunisian Jewish communities, Jewish womens negotiation of social power relationships in Tunis, and the razing of the citys Jewish quarter, Parks fills the gap in current literature by focusing on the broader transnational context of French actions in colonial Tunisia.

Regeneration Through Empire - French Pronatalists And Colonial Settlement In The Third Republic

de Margaret Cook Andersen

46,38€ + 10% EM CARTÃO

DISPONIBILIDADE IMEDIATA

 Following France's defeat in the Franco-Prussian War in 1870-71, French patriots feared that their country was in danger of becoming a second-rate power in Europe. Decreasing birth rates had largely slowed French population growth, and the country's population was not keeping pace with that of its European neighbors. To regain its standing in the European world, France set its sights on building a vast colonial empire while simultaneously developing a policy of pronatalism to reverse these demographic trends. Though representing distinct political movements, colonial supporters and pronatalist organizations were born of the same crisis and reflected similar anxieties concerning France's trajectory and position in the world.Regeneration through Empire explores the intersection between colonial lobbyists and pronatalists in France's Third Republic. Margaret Cook Andersen argues that as the pronatalist movement became more organized at the end of the nineteenth century, pronatalists increasingly understood their demographic crisis in terms that transcended the boundaries of the metropole and began to position the French empire, specifically its colonial holdings in North Africa and Madagascar, as a key component in the nation's regeneration. Drawing on an array of primary sources from French archives, Regeneration through Empire is the first book to analyze the relationship between depopulation and imperialism.
