Alarmed by a growing Muslim population and a reputedly weak
imperial administration, European settlers in Algeria in the early
twentieth century increasingly turned to fascism in order to seize
power and create an authoritarian regime. This study investigates
the extreme-rightist leagues that arose in this context, with
particular attention to the rabid xenophobia directed at local Jews
and Muslims, who were derisively branded '"indigenes"' and cast as
anti-colonial and left-wing actors. In their attempts to preserve
European hegemony and a subjugated pool of unskilled labor, these
groups helped to cement a clear racial hierarchy and definitively
shaped Algeria's colonial history.
