North Africa differs from the Middle East in several significant
ways. It was subject to a uniform colonial experience as part of
the French empire; its populations are far more culturally
homogeneous than those of the Middle East; and, since the
Reconquista, it has always been far more susceptible to European
influences than has the Middle East. It has thus had a far better
basis for regional integration and for effective state formation
than has the Middle East itself. In the post-Cold War world, North
Africa took on a new significance for Europe as issues of migration
and regional trade began to dominate the European agenda. This
book, first published in 1993, endeavours to investigate the
background to the political developments of modern North Africa. It
not only looks at the pre-colonial past but also investigates the
effect of the colonial period itself on the regional dimension in
view of the creation of the UMA, a confederal regional
organisation, in early 1989. The contributors to this volume are
all people with long experience of the North African political and
historical scene.
