Algeria, a french creation ? Deconstruction of the colonial lie

For several decades, there has been a certain discourse that is heard on various French television platforms from certain well-known media personalities. This tirade has as its ideological substance the most absolute denial of the existence of a state, a nation, and even a pre-colonial Algerian identity.

Indeed, according to these intellectuals and other polemicists, present-day Algeria owes its existence only to the French colonial enterprise of the early 19th century and the entry of French troops into the central Maghreb. Before the conquest, it is said, this vast land in North Africa had no trace of civilization, and was populated by a conglomerate of Bedouin tribes whose obvious inferiority pushed them, in a natural way, to an inevitable disappearance. The intervention of France would have, thanks to its moral, intellectual and industrial superiority, not only allowed the autochthonous Arab-Muslim people to be spared a programmed disappearance, but, in addition, it would have offered them an existence and a place in history.

In this book, which is the first in the world to deal in depth with this subject, we will proceed to a total deconstruction of this colonial myth making Algeria, land of the ancient Berbers and medieval Arabs, a vulgar colonial creation, on the one hand, by tracing the history of the country, from the earliest times to our modern era, and, also, by refuting the fallacious rhetoric of the nostalgic of French Algeria. To the political and ideologically oriented fallacious propaganda, it is by clear political research and studies that we will answer. Finally, it is with a real reflection of the movements and the politico-historical facts that we will refute the allegations and other nonsense devoid of any foundation that the Algerianophobic affabulators repeat with zeal.
