Historical Dictionary of Algeria, Hardback Book

Historical Dictionary of Algeria Hardback

Part of the Historical Dictionaries of Africa series

Hardback

Description

Algeria's strategic regional and global importance continues to grow.

Its hydrocarbon wealth, namely natural gas and oil, is impressive and its receipts are crucial to the national economy.

The European Union is a particularly valued hydrocarbon importer and overall commercial partner.

The bilateral relationship with France remains problematic and paradoxical.

Algeria has demanded an apology for the imposition of colonialism; but it also recognizes the importance of France economically, politically, and militarily, e.g., the unrest in the Sahel (notably Mali).

Furthermore, Algeria continues to recover from its recent, tragic civil strife characterized by terrorism and extremism.

Its uncertain future, given its ageing leadership, rentier economy, and frustrated youth, is a critical concern. This fourth edition of Historical Dictionary of Algeria covers its history through a chronology, an introductory essay, appendixes, and an extensive bibliography.

The dictionary section has over 700 cross-referenced entries on important personalities, politics, economy, foreign relations, religion, and culture.

This book is an excellent access point for students, researchers, and anyone wanting to know more about Algeria.
