Talk with Bourguiba: Middle Way in Tunisia
Werth, Alexander | September 8, 1956 issue

add to cart   close window

Tunisia, the smallest of the three French territories of North Africa, is the most advanced, most progressive Arab state in the world. It has the advantage of having a leader of immense energy, popularity and ability in Habib Bourguiba, and a politically mature Nationalist party, the Neo-Destour, led by Bourguiba. The trouble is that currently the whole atmosphere in Tunisia is poisoned by the war in neighboring Algeria. Bourguiba says that the longer the war in Algeria lasts, the greater will be the accumulation of anarchy and mutual hatred, and the more difficult will it be to set up any sort of reasonable cooperation between the French and Algerians.
