Franco-Algerian Dual Nationals : A New Relationship between Nationality and Territoriality Even though the statistics are still difficult to establish, dual nationality is now a determinant element in the relationship between France and Algeria. The particular Frenchmen and women who comprise the dual national population are bearers of both the memory of colonialism and of accepted constituents of French national identity. Does the transgression of national ties call into question the legitimacy of the Algerian separatist project or does it rather represent a new continuation of the colonial relationship ? Whatever the case, it constitutes a promising arena of research in postcolonial studies. | ||
