The era of decolonization, a period equally marked by an unprecedented postwar economic boom, also became the foundational era of Algerian family settlement in France.{09}This dissertation examines the intersections between welfare services, gender and Algerian immigration before, during and after the Algerian War for Independence (1954--1962). Studying welfare services facilitates an examination of immigration through the lens of gender, making previously invisible immigrant families visible. These services were of utmost importance since Algerians' primary interaction with the state was through these agencies.Subjects--Topical Terms:

520 $a The era of decolonization, a period equally marked by an unprecedented postwar economic boom, also became the foundational era of Algerian family settlement in France.{09}This dissertation examines the intersections between welfare services, gender and Algerian immigration before, during and after the Algerian War for Independence (1954--1962). Studying welfare services facilitates an examination of immigration through the lens of gender, making previously invisible immigrant families visible. These services were of utmost importance since Algerians' primary interaction with the state was through these agencies.
520 $a While the majority of Algerians living in France were male workers, the proportion of Algerian immigrant families grew steadily throughout this period and greatly influenced the nature and development of welfare services enacted for this population in France. The government implemented a range of programs to foster adaptation to French society (from courses that trained Algerian women to be proper housewives to subsidized public housing), in the hope of helping these families adjust to life in France and eventually integrate into the general population. The welfare network cultivated hospitality and attempted to convince Algerians they were "French citizens like all others." The desire to undermine support for Algerian nationalism inspired both the inclusive rhetoric and the ever-expanding service network. Women became essential to this effort. If women could learn to appreciate the benefits of French culture, welfare services providers hoped these women would influence their husbands and children and discourage participation in Algerian nationalism.
520 $a Once Algeria gained independence, the Algerian family population in France appeared to vanish. As Algerians ceased to be the object of a concerted effort to save French-Algeria, the social services constructed in their name were transformed into a network that served all immigrants. Examining the types of services offered, their intended goals, whether they were offered to men or women, and how they changed over time illustrates when Algerian settlement in France seemed possible, even desirable, and when it became unimaginable.
