Description

This analytical work examines the 1991-2 crisis in Algeria by tracing its roots to the competing ideologies and policy choices of the Boumediene era (1965-78). The book explores how post-independence Algeria grappled with contradictory models: the post-World War II French statist approach alongside the Soviet planned economy framework. These competing systems collided with unresolved tensions stemming from Algeria's colonial and pre-colonial history, the evolution of nationalist thought, and the founding of the Front de Liberation Nationale in 1954. By investigating how these ideological conflicts remained unresolved at independence, the study provides essential context for understanding the political and economic instability that followed. Published by Continuum International Publishing Group Ltd., this work offers scholars and students a comprehensive examination of how historical policy decisions and ideological choices shaped Algeria's turbulent modern trajectory.
