Zusammenfassung:How do the things which connect us also serve to divide us? 'Electric News in Colonial Algeria' traces how news circulated in a particularly divided society: Algeria under French rule in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. It tells a different history of globalization, one which puts the experience of everyday people at the centre. The years between 1881 and 1940 were those of maximum colonial power in North Africa; a period of intense technological revolution, global high imperialism, and the expansion of settler colonialism. Algerians became connected to international networks of news, and local people followed distant events with great interest. But once news reached Algeria, accounts of recent events often provoked conflict as they moved between different social groups
