Résumé anglais Fanny Colonna : The Selection of the Elect : School Verdict and Class Position in Colonial Algeria. Research on the selection and training process of go-between agents belonging to the colonial society, carried out by the colonial school, in Algeria, from 1880 to 1940, based on judgments passed upon the teachers to come, at the end of their studies in the Ecole Normale. Method : (a) a certain number of categories inferred from the judgments passed upon nearly a thousand of the school's students, is put in relation with the socio-economic characteristics of the subjects; (b)a structural analysis of 100 judgments, selected among the students of 8 full years at regular intervals; (c) a content analysis of educational journals offered to the teachers at that time and of biographies of ex-students of the school. The data reveal that the 'excellent' ones are : 1) those who show their capacities in cultural go-between, i.e., with an average acculturation, half-way between the dominated and the ruling society and 2) that their social origin is indifferently rural or urban ,but that they show different profiles.
