Ce travail présente une première ébauche d'une investigation sur le phénomène migratoire en Algérie. Des entretiens réalisés à Constantine ont ciblé des trajectoires migratoires des Ah Frah (Aurès) et des Ath Waghlis (Kabylie) ; le but étant la connaissance des mécanismes d'intégration dans l'espace urbain de deux communautés que leurs conditions handicapent au départ (méconnaissance de la langue de la ville, du mode de vie citadin...).Aujourd'hui, nous constatons que leur intégration est réalisée consécutivement à des stratégies de groupes et d'individus. Toutefois, celle-ci ne s'est pas faite sur la négation de la culture d'origine. Une opération de symbiose des deux cultures, mises au départ en situation de conflit, semble s'être réalisée à la troisième génération.

In Empire's Violent End, Thijs Brocades Zaalberg and Bart Luttikhuis, along with expert contributors, present comparative research focused specifically on excessive violence in Indonesia, Algeria, Vietnam, Malaysia, Kenya and other areas during the wars of decolonization. In the last two decades, there have been heated public and scholarly debates in France, the United Kingdom, and the Netherlands on the violent end of empire. Nevertheless, the broader comparative exploits into colonial counter-insurgency tend to treat atrocities such as torture, execution, rape, and others on the side. The editors describe how such comparisons mostly focus on the differences by engaging in 'guilt rating.' Moreover, the dramas that have unfolded in Algeria and Kenya tend to overshadow similar violent events in Indonesia, the very first nation to declare independence directly after World War II. Empire's Violent End is the first book to place the Dutch-Indonesian case at the heart of a comparison with focused, thematic analysis on a diverse range of topics to demonstrate that despite variation in scale, combat intensity and international dynamics, there were more similarities than differences in the ways colonial powers used extreme forms of violence. By delving into the causes and nature of the abuse, Brocades Zaalberg and Luttikhuis conclude that all cases involved some form of institutionalized impunity, which enabled the type of situation in which the forces in the service of the colonial rulers were able to use extreme violence
