Summary:After having been deprived of their civil rights by the Vichy government for two years, the Jews of Algeria had to wait 11 months to become entirely French again. Discussions with the new authorities began after the British-American invasion of November 8, 1942, and concluded with the final restoration of these rights by the French Committee of National Liberation on November 20, 1943. Historians have often highlighted the French authorities’ lack of will, which was fed by anti-Semitism. According to certain historians, the hostility of the native Muslims toward the Jews was exaggerated and manipulated in order to keep the latter group in a subordinate position. In light of certain administrative documents of the French administration in Algeria, this paper suggests that we reconsider the role that the tensions between these communities played vis-à-vis the attitude of the authorities.
