| Tóm tắt: | The book explores in detail two major wars of decolonization fought by France in Indochine (in the early 1950s) and Algeria (in the late 1950s), as well as the smaller but far from insignificant military operations that the French conducted in Madagascar, Tunisia and Morocco. Amongst the themes explored are: the traditional French attitudes to empire, and how these changed under the pressure of events; the French Army's counter-revolutionary warfare school in the 1950s, and its politically dangerous doctrines; the collapse of the Fourth Republic and the return to power of de Gaulle; the final drama of withdrawal from Algeria, with its "ethnic cleansing" of the European settler population |
