Abstract

Comparée à l'Indochine et l'Algérie, la décolonisation en Afrique occidentale française (AOF) est souvent présentée comme une décolonisation "réussie" et "exemplaire" tout en étant moins bien connue. Comblant cette lacune, Tony Chafer montre que si ce moment a effectivement été moins conflictuel en AOF que dans les autres colonies françaises, ce n'est pas la conséquence d'une stratégie réfléchie. Cela relève, à l'inverse, d'un processus complexe, fragmentaire et imprévisible dans la foulée de la Seconde Guerre mondiale, que les hommes politiques, tant français qu'africains, ne maîtrisaient que partiellement. En se basant sur une analyse détaillée des archives et sur des entretiens avec des acteurs de l'époque, cet ouvrage apporte des éléments cruciaux pour la compréhension du processus de décolonisation en Afrique de l'Ouest. Interrogeant le récit d'une indépendance octroyée par des hommes politiques français bienveillants, il propose une analyse nouvelle. Il met ainsi en perspective le rôle des pouvoirs français d'une part, et celui des leaders et du mouvement nationaliste africain d'autre part. L'éclairage proposé permet de mieux comprendre le contexte historique des relations complexes qu'entretient la France avec cette région du monde. -- Quatrième de couverture

Abstract

In an effort to restore its world-power status after the humiliation of defeat and occupation, France was eager to maintain its overseas empire at the end of the Second World War. Yet just fifteen years later France had decolonized, and by 1960 only a few small island territories remained under French control. The process of decolonization in Indochina and Algeria has been widely studied, but much less has been written about decolonization in France's largest colony, French West Africa. Here, the Frenc h approach was regarded as exemplary -- that is, a smooth transition successfully managed
