SUMMARY:CES: Governing Along Religious Lines: Jews, Muslims, and Christian Settlers in French Algeria, 1830-1870 
DESCRIPTION:<div class="scroll"><div class="summary">When French troops invaded the Ottoman Regency of Algiers in 1830 they initiated a bloody conquest that lasted for over half a century. French colonial rule in Algeria was predicated on a treaty that legally committed France to "tolerate" the religion of local populations. This talk explores religious toleration as an instrument of colonial control; an instrument that aimed to draw the boundaries of inclusion and differentiation in French Algeria along religious (and consistorial) lines. At the same time, this colonial policy also served as a critical platform of negotiation over questions of religion, rule, and rights between colonial officials and Algerian Jewish, Muslim, and Christian settler communities.<br><br></div><div class="speakers"><div class="speaker"><a href="https://ces.fas.harvard.edu/ucla.academia.edu/RachelEvaSchley"> Rachel Eva Schley</a> <span class="affiliations">Research Associate, Harvard University</span></div></div><div class="sponsors"><span>Sponsors:</span> <a href="https://ces.fas.harvard.edu/studygroups/jews-in-modern-europe/">Jews in Modern Europe Study Group</a>; Harvard Center for Jewish Studies, William Landau Lecture and Publication Fund</div><div class="contact"><span>Contact:</span> Phyllis Albert, <a href="mailto:phyllisalbert@gmail.com">phyllisalbert@gmail.com</a></div></div>
