Résumé L'article traite des discours politiques contemporains sur la colonisation en Afrique et sur l'historiographie qui les informe. Deux métaphores étroitement liées jouent un rôle central dans l'analyse : la dette, souvent décrite comme une « dette de sang » et la « facture », qu'on oppose ici au diagnostic d'une « fracture » sociale coloniale. En partant d'une question d'une simplicité trompeuse – la controverse autour de la dette de sang et des pensions payées aux anciens combattants africains de l'armée coloniale française – on étudiera le rôle donné à l'histoire coloniale dans les discours politiques contemporains en Côte d'Ivoire et en France, avant de revenir sur la pratique de l'écriture de l'histoire, à partir du cas du Mali contemporain. Les évocations du passé colonial – qui variant de la réconciliation à la recolonisation, et de la « fracture » à la « facture » – ont acquis une efficacité nouvelle dans le présent postcolonial parce qu'elles résonnent avec des angoisses vives autour du politique, de la communauté et de la souveraineté.

To attack the rules is to outmaneuver the friends and foes at the lower level of the game of policies and alliances. The rules are at the higher level of the context of that game, the historical and cultural context of warring Viet Nam. What makes Viet Nam unique is its social organization based on a loosely knitted network of villages through deep and strong relations capable of repelling intruders and invading neighbors, both moving and still like the moon underneath. Here, the chinese civilization has made a new nation assimilating the model and resisting the domination. Elsewhere, the be same chinese civilisation has made another chinese provinces.
History of Viet Nam is written by an advancing front of modest and primitive villages from a delta to the next, from the gulf of Tonkin to the gulf of Siam, « vietnamizing » the nature and the peoples on its passage by the plow and the sword. South Viet Nam was cambodian land a century ago and the french colonial administration put an end to the siamese-vietnamese « condominium » over Cambodia after a short 0 to 0 fight between Siam and Viet Nam, the first claiming its western part of the vietnamese colony de facto and de jure. Cambodia was then ruled by a vietnamese general governor assisted by two lieutenant governors. The present vietnamese occupation of Cambodia, in this perspective, may be both a « prelude » to the continuation of this advancing front of villages, the confrontation between Viet Nam and Thailand (fancy and hegemonostic name for Siam since 1939) for the leadership of South East Asia and a « fugue » for warring Viet Nam to solve its political and economical problems, a country and people forged in war and for war during these four decades. The vietnamese claim of the Mekong river as a link may be translated in german word as « Anschluss » or reunification.

What makes Viet Nam unique is its social organization based on a loosely knit network of villages with deep and strong relations capable of repelling intruders and invading neighbors. Here, Chinese civilization has contributed to a new nation assimilating the model and resisting the domination. The history of Viet Nam reveals a front of modest and primitive villages advancing from one delta to the next, from the Gulf of Tonkin to the Gulf of Siam, "vietnamizing" nature and the peoples on its passage by the plow and the sword. The present Vietnamese occupation of Cambodia, in this perspective, may be both a "prelude" to the continuation of this advancing front of villages, resulting in a confrontation between Viet Nam and Thailand for the leadership of South East Asia - and a "fugue" for warring Viet Nam to solve its political and economic problems.
