Description

Tracing the years, 1990-1998, this text asserts that the Algerian civil war has striking similarities, indeed continuities, with that of the Ottoman regency, the French conquest and colonial occupation, and the national liberation war. It sees the Groupe Islamique Arme's "Emirs" as the heirs of the Barbary corsairs, the chieftains of the colonial era and the colonels of the independence struggle's Armee Liberation Nationale (ALN).

Table of Contents

  • Part 1 The origins of the civil war: social transformation and political change
  • a revolutionary situation
  • onset of war. Part 2 Mainspring of the civil war: the logic of war of the Islamist groups
  • the new means of self-enrichment
  • the security-first policy. Part 3 Consolidation of the war: the war economy and the political dynamic
  • Islamist Guerrilla ideology and strategy
  • return to the Ottoman era.
