The North Constantine demonstration of May 1945 an insurrectional attempt ?, Charles-Robert Ageron. In May 1945, very violent demonstrations broke out in Algeria. Since then, various explanations have been given in an attempt to understand something that European public opinion hardly noticed. For some, it was an insurrectional attempt ; for others, hunger riots or a peasant uprising. All such theses were based on political biases. New sources now make it possible to evaluate better both the divergent interpretations of the events, the number of victims and the state of political forces of a budding nation. Thus the idea of a colonialist provocation or that of an Algerian Popular Party maneuvre can be rejected. On the other hand, the APP's leaders' hesitations concerning strategy and their catastrophic consequence on the movement itself can no longer be neglected. The demonstrations now appear to have been essential as preparations for the Algerian revolution. Source : Éditeur (via Persée) |
