Abstract

■ Savarese Memory Wars About the Algerian Question : Concerning Some Militant Claims In a time when commemoration belongs to civic virtues, the French state is now confronted with the splitting of Algerian memories. The Pied-Noir example shows that the same existence of distinctive groups (Pieds-Noirs, Harkis, etc.) depends on the militant involvement in such Algerian memory wars. Besides, the so-called wars set off an intense political activity, each group aiming to obtain from authorities the official establishment of memory places and museums in benefice of their own memory and at others expense.
