This book traces the spread of a global anti-imperialism from the
vantage point of Paris between the two World Wars, where countless
future leaders of Third World countries spent formative stints.
Exploring the local social context in which these emergent
activists moved, the study delves into assassination plots
allegedly hatched by Chinese students, demonstrations by Latin
American nationalists, and the everyday lives of Algerian,
Senegalese and Vietnamese workers. On the basis of police reports
and other primary sources, the book foregrounds the role of
migration and interaction as driving forces enabling challenges to
the imperial world order, weaving together the stories of peoples
of three continents. Drawing on the scholarship of
twentieth-century imperial, international and global history as
well as migration, race and ethnicity in France, it ultimately
proposes a new understanding of the roots of the Third World idea.
