After 132 years of colonialism and a brutal war of independence, France and Algeria have attempted to fashion a new relationship based on "mutual respect." Beginning with a review of the colonial period up to 1958, the book examines the various dramas that have distinguished bilateral relations since independence: the Evian Accords of March 1962, the substitution of cooperation for colonialism, the nationalization of the hydrocarbons sector in 1971, and the Fitna, Algeria's violent "trial" of itself as a nation during the '90s. The author melds philosophy, economics, sociology, political science, and literary criticism into his historical narrative. P-2 .
