Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book provides an analysis of African war and governance from 1830 to 1852. Using recently uncovered official military and diplomatic documents, the author offers new insights into French attempts at establishing hegemony in Algeria. Central to this account is an examination of the guerilla warfare employed by the emir Abdelkader and how the French military struggled to respond effectively, leading them to rely increasingly on political means to achieve their goals. The book argues that France failed to achieve its aims of fully conquering Algeria due to inadequate troop numbers and a reliance on strategies that alienated and oppressed the local population rather than winning their support. By exploring these historical themes, this book sheds light on the complexities of French imperial policy and offers lessons for understanding the ongoing challenges of military operations in contested territories.
