An historian of the Annales school, Lucette Valensi blends the
methods of history and anthropology to portray the Tunisian
countryside in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, which has
been previously little-studied. She analyses the nomadic tribes and
the sedentary peasants, discussing their social organisation, their
economic activity, and their cultural practices. She also explores
the changes that affected both the peasantry and the Tunisian state
in the nineteenth century, showing how the country's incorporation
into the capitalist world economy led to social unrest, and
eventually to the general rebellion of 1864 that precipitated the
establishment of a French protectorate, thus placing Tunisia in a
role of dependence and heralding underdevelopment.
