Abstract
This article looks at how different British institutions or organs of the state reacted when the Algerian war of independence officially broke out in November 1954. The article further considers how different events which occurred as the course of the war unfolded were responded to by the British. Furthermore, the article discusses the implications of the outbreak of the war for British colonial policies in Africa, especially countries such as Kenya. The article is based largely on archival research at the Public Record Office at Kew and newspaper archives at Colindale (both in UK). The House of Commons Hansard debates were of great benefit to the article.
