Sömürge Mirasının Gölgesinde Cezayir ve Fransa Arasındaki İlişkiler: Yeni Bir Sayfa Mümkün Mü?

Öz

Bu makale, sömürge mirasının Cezayir ve Fransa arasındaki ilişkileri nasıl etkilediğini incelemektedir. Cezayir'in 1962'deki bağımsızlığından bu yana, Fransa ile eski sömürgesi arasındaki ilişkiler her iki ülke için de oldukça hassas bir çizgide ilerlemiştir. Kelimenin tam anlamıyla sömürge döneminden miras kalan travmalar, iki ülke arasındaki ilişkileri şekillendirdi. Cezayir'in ulusal bağımsızlık hayali, ülkenin zenginliği ve kaynakları üzerinde Fransız etkisinden uzak, yabancı kontrolü sona erdirerek özgür karar alma mekanizmalarına sahip egemen bir devlet olmaktı. Ancak bu hayal, 132 yıllık sömürge mirasının gölgesinde tam olarak gerçekleşemedi.

THE RELATIONS BETWEEN ALGERIA AND FRANCE IN THE SHADOW OF COLONIAL LEGACY: A NEW PAGE POSSIBLE?

Öz

This paper examines how the colonial legacy affected relations between Algeria and France. Since Algerian independence in 1962, relations between France and its former colony have been on a highly delicate line for both countries. The traumas, literally inherited from the colonial period, shaped the relations between the two countries. Algeria's dream of national independencewas to become a sovereign state with free decision-making mechanisms by ending foreign control over the country's wealth and resources, away from French influence. However, this dream has not been fully realized in the shadow of the 132 years of the colonial legacy.
