Paris 1961: Algerians, State Terror, and Memory

by NeilMacmaster (Author), JimHouse (Author)

Synopsis

For decades knowledge of the 1961 massacre of Algerian demonstrators by the Paris police was suppressed. This study investigates the roots of this violence within the colonial system and how the event was covered up until it resurfaced after the 1980s to become one of the most controversial issues in contemporary French politics.
