Résumé La guerre d'Algérie, qui se déroule au sein d'une démocratie garantissant la liberté d'expression et de communication, n'a pas été une guerre transparente, parce que le pouvoir civil et militaire s'est efforcé de contrôler l'information. Cependant, les combattants eux-mêmes ont révélé et raconté ce qu'ils vivaient. Certes minoritaires, ces témoins revêtent une importance considérable car ils fissurent le mur de la communication officielle. Au début marginale et peu audible, la parole des soldats sur la guerre d'Algérie devient de plus en plus forte, jusqu'à faire retentir un fort bruit médiatique au moment des confessions du général Aussaresses.

Working paper
Purpose: The article examines the trial of French General Paul Aussaresses (b. 1918, d. 2013) in the 2000s for war crimes committed during the Algerian War (1954 to 1962). Approach/Methodology/Design: A historiographical analysis covering topics such as colonialism, public memory, collective memory, counter-narratives, education, forgetting, and authenticity. Findings: Public history without individual memories or lived experiences of communities that have survived historical events can be viewed as inauthentic. It might even be called propaganda to present only state-sanctioned accounts of historical events. Many governments will consequently enact laws to distinguish between what constitutes official national narratives—and what remains peripheral, or perhaps extremist individual, historical accounts. Practical Implications: This paper contributes to the scholarly literature examining oral testimonials in political and war crime tribunals, and the ethics of conducting public history research using media archives. Originality/value: Towards a greater understanding of collective memory processes, the case of the Algerian War reveals the constant negotiations, formal networks, and informal channels used to distinguish between legitimate and illegitimate sources of historical memory—and the consequences on culture, law, and society.
