The aftermath of Algeria's revolutionary war for independence
coincided with the sexual revolution in France, and in this book
Todd Shepard argues that these two movements are inextricably
linked. Sex, France, and Arab Men is a history of how and why-from
the upheavals of French Algeria in 1962 through the 1970s-highly
sexualized claims about Arabs were omnipresent in important public
French discussions, both those that dealt with sex and those that
spoke of Arabs. Shepard explores how the so-called sexual
revolution took shape in a France profoundly influenced by the
ongoing effects of the Algerian revolution. Shepard's analysis of
both events alongside one another provides a frame that renders
visible the ways that the fight for sexual liberation, usually
explained as an American and European invention, developed out of
the worldwide anticolonial movement of the mid-twentieth century.
