Les liens politiques de la France avec les États du Levant ont fait l’objet de nombreuses études historiques. L’auteur s’attache ici à étudier, dans le contexte des mandats et de la Seconde Guerre mondiale, la présence ambiguë de l’armée française au Levant de 1936 - année de la négociation des traités d’indépendance concernant la Syrie et le Liban - à 1946, date du désengagement de la France. Les militaires français, tout-puissants au Moyen-Orient, subissant le contrecoup des décisions hésitantes prises à Paris, se sont mal accommodés de l’accès à l’indépendance de certains États. De la volonté de créer un second front aux conséquences désastreuses de l’armistice, deux armées françaises vont s’affronter sur le terrain avec l’arbitrage des Britanniques. Maurice Albord, s’appuyant sur des fonds d’archives pour la plupart inédits, montre comment les maladresses accumulées obligeront la France à quitter définitivement le Levant.

"Ammiel Alcalay’s groundbreaking work, After Jews and Arabs, published in 1993, redrew the geographic, political, cultural, and emotional map of relations between Jews and Arabs in the Levantine/Mediterranean world over a thousand-year period. Based on over a decade of research and fieldwork in many disciplines—including history and historiography; anthropology, ethnography, and ethnomusicology; political economy and geography; linguistics; philosophy; and the history of science and technology—the book presented a radically different perspective than that presented by received opinion.Given the radical and iconoclastic nature of Alcalay’s perspective, After Jews and Arabs met great resistance in attempts to publish it. Though completed and already circulating in 1989, it didn’t appear until 1993. In addition, when the book was published, there wasn’t enough space to include its original bibliography, a foundational part of the project.A Bibliography for After Jews and Arabs presents the original bibliography, as completed in 1992, without changes, as a glimpse into the historical record of a unique scholarly, political, poetic, and cultural journey. The bibliography itself had roots in research begun in the late 1970s and demonstrates a very wide arc.In addition to the bibliography, we include two accompanying texts here. In “Behind the Scenes: Before After Jews and Arabs,” Alcalay takes us behind the closed doors of the academic process, reprinting the original readers reports and his detailed rebuttals, and in “On a Bibliography for After Jews and Arabs,” Alcalay contextualizes his own path to the work he undertook, in methodological, historical, and political terms."
