It does this by situating key sites and moments of French imperialism and anti-colonialism in the period from 1931 to 1962 within a more entangled global perspective.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eEach case study in the book reveals how a pivotal moment in French imperial history occurred within a globally connected context.  These case studies are analysed as locations in space and time which have been key to defining and re-defining multiple and often conflicting histories within the Francophone world. They are understood on their own terms - in respect to each location's much longer national and regional histories and to the historically contingent motivations of the relevant historical actors - rather than as episodes in French history. In so doing, the book de-centres the colonial metropole of Paris by placing it within a constellation of locations throughout the French empire.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eSarah C.
