Lecture 21 - Algerial Revolution

This is a recording of a zoom lecture on the Algerian Revolution (1954-1962). The following topics are covered: The French colonization of Algeria (1830-1954); An overview of Decolonization (1945-1962); The Algerian Revolution (1954-1962). The main argument is that the Algerian struggle for independence transformed not only Algeria, but also France itself, forcing the French Republic to rethink its composition - who was a part of it? - and its values.
