Savage wars? Codes of violence in Algeria, 1830s-1990s
Article Abstract:
The different occurrences of both state and non-state violence must be understood as particular, distinct moments in both the recomposition and breakdown of inherently conflictual social reforms. While Algerian history provides many examples of the non-violent negotiation of social and political tensions, the social production and experience of violence are written into dominant historiographies and public culture in complex ways.

The objective of this research is the articulation of the reception, interpretation and response to 'genomics' in different cultural contexts outside the Euro-American conceptual hemisphere.
