Du choc géopolitique à un tournant géoéconomique. Les intérêts économiques français et l’indépendance de l’Algérie

Bordeaux Economics Working Papers from Bordeaux School of Economics (BSE)

Abstract: Algeria’s political independence in 1962 opened the doors to a questioning of the domination of “imperialist” France over the Algerian economy. The local production system or cluster structured around the consumption and financing circuits of the Europeans established in the colony collapsed after te repatriation of the Pieds-Noirs. The trans-Mediterranean prduction systems, animated since the ex-Metropole, must gradually adapt to the strategies of French companies, faithful or not to their Maghreb embeddedness, and especially to the will of the new State to take control of the development of the country. The year 1962 is less a moment of rupture than an opening over ten years of transfer of ownership and decision-making centers, as socialism and nationalism of the new Power assert themselves.
