- Title
A Conflicted Sense of Nationality: Napoleon III's Arab Kingdom and the Paradoxes of French Multiculturalism.
- Authors
MURRAY-MILLER, GAVIN
- Abstract
The article discusses Algeria under the rule of French leader Napoleon III during the Second Empire, focusing on issues of nationality and multiculturalism. A public announcement by Napoleon III in 1863 declared Algeria an "Arab Kingdom," not a French colonial possession, leading to a public outpouring of contradictory opinions in the Algerian press. Topics considered include French culture and civilization, citizenship, republicanism, religious toleration, imperialism, and racial and ethnic prejudice.
