Condition: very good. Ithaca : Cornell University Press, 2006. Hardcover. Dustjacket. 304 pp. - In this account of the Algerian WarÂ's effect on French political structures and notions of national identity, Todd Shepard asserts that the separation of Algeria from France was truly a revolutionary event with lasting consequences for French social and political life. For more than a century, Algeria had been, legally and administratively, part of France; after the bloody war that concluded in 1962 it was other, its eight million Algerian residents deprived of French citizenship while hundreds of thousands of French pieds noirs were forced to return to a country that was never home. This rupture violated the universalism that had been the essence of French republican theory since the late eighteenth century. Shepard contends that because the amputation of Algeria from the French body politic was accomplished illegally and without explanation, its repercussions are responsible for many of the racial and religious tensions that confront France today. " The need for historically specific accounts of decolonization has arguably never been more urgent. The Invention of Decolonization illuminates how  the end of AlgeriaÂ' reconfigured the social, sexual, and political orders of postwar France. Shepard thereby joins the story of the Algerian War and its aftermath not just to histories of postcolonialism, but as provocatively to contemporary debates about national belonging, racialized citizenship, confessional politics, and state-sponsored efforts at remembrance, repatriation, and reconciliation." Antoinette Burton, Professor of History and Bastian Professor of Global and Transnational Studies, University of Illinois, Urbana-Champaign English text.
