Abstract:
Civilizing "French Muslims from Algeria" -- Instructing the experts : framing the metropolitan "conquest of hearts" -- Instructing a "difficult and delicate clientele" : the social services mission -- From dormitories to homes : housing workers and families during the Fourth Republic -- Services and surveillance : welfare, the police, and the Algerian War -- The great "hope" : housing Algerian families at the height of the Algerian War.
Abstract:
France, which has the largest Muslim minority community in Europe, has been in the news in recent years because of perceptions that Muslims have not integrated into French society. This book explores the roots of these debates through an examination of the history of social welfare programs for Algerian migrants from the end of World War II until Algeria gained independence in 1962
