The French Empire Between the WarsImperialism, Politics and Society\nAuthor(s): Martin Thomas\nFormat: Paperback\nPublisher: Manchester University Press, United Kingdom\nImprint: Manchester University Press\nISBN-13: 9780719077555, 978-0719077555\nSynopsis\nBy considering the distinctiveness of the inter-war years as a discrete period of colonial change, this book addresses several larger issues, such as tracing the origins of decolonization in the rise of colonial nationalism, and a re-assessment of the impact of inter-war colonial rebellions in Africa, Syria and Indochina. The book also connects French theories of colonial governance to the lived experience of colonial rule in a period scarred by war and economic dislocation. -- .
