Generations of the Algerian War

The Generations of the Algerian War project brings together members of the National Office for Veterans and Victims of War (ONACVG), which, since 2015 and under the scientific guidance of three historians specializing in the period – Raphaëlle Branche, Jean-Jacques Jordi, and Abderahmen Moumen – has been working alongside the French Ministry of Education to provide teachers with resources for teaching about the Algerian War. A diversity of perspectives is highlighted through the choice of speakers: FLN and OAS militants, a Pied-Noir (French settler in Algeria), the son of a Harkis (Algerian Muslim who fought for the French during the Algerian War), a Jewish woman from Algeria, and French conscripts, all contributing to the construction of a collective memory. The ravages of colonization, forced exile, the transmission of trauma… Each of the three sessions addresses a theme related to the speakers' life experiences and explores different facets of this war.
