The Franco-Algerian Agreement of 1968: A Continuing Source of Tension

This agreement, signed six years after the end of the Algerian War, creates a favorable immigration regime for Algerians, who do not need a specific visa to stay more than three months in France and have access to ten-year residence permits more quickly than other foreigners, including in the context of family reunification.

Meanwhile, specialist in the Algerian War, historian Benjamin Stora publishes a new book devoted to the “tear” between France and Algeria.
