of their European background. 30 At the same time there was also a large number of Arab Algerians entering France. The Muslim Algerians who were coming to France were coming both for work and because many had fought on the French side during the war and were now viewed with hostility in Algeria. This mass influx of people both European and Muslim had a lasting impact on the public‘s view on immigration up to the present day. Since decolonization began France has been bombarded with returning European settlers and people of North African heritage mainly from Algeria, Tunisia, and Morocco. This has created an atmosphere of hostility both from the French towards the immigrants, and from the immigrants towards the French. Since Algerians and other North African immigrants began entering France in large numbers there have been welfare programs to help them adapt. Early on this meant stripping them of their culture but later on attempts to provide better housing and job training have also been implemented. 31 Eventually efforts to take away the immigrants culture were stopped but conditions for them did not improve. Many North African and Muslim immigrants live in poor communities with inadequate housing, oppressive policing, and racial discrimination. 32 It was increased immigration after the end of the Algerian War that led to the French public not accepting immigrants into French society. The government‘s inability to improve conditions in immigrant communities has also lead to a tense situation between the French and immigrants entering into the country. It also contributed to the rioting of Muslim immigrants in Paris and throughout France in 2005. Increased immigration has also led to the rise of the extreme right in French politics. One note worthy party in France is the Front National known as the FN which was founded on October 5, 1972 by Jean-Marie Le Pen. The policies that Le Pen wanted to enact during his leadership of the FN were giving ―true‖ French citizens the best in social security and health benefits, and excluding and even deporting 30 Richard Alba and Roxane Silberman, ―Decolonization Immigrations and the Social Origins of the Second Generation: The Case of North Africans in France,‖ International Migration Review 36 no. 4 (2002): 1170. 31 Dilip Subramanian, ―Riots and the Immigrant Community,‖ Economic and Political Weekly 40 no. 49 (December 2005): 5156. 32 Ibid. 179
some immigrants. 33 In 2002 enough of the French public felt similarly to Le Pen about immigration issues that he was able to gain 17% of the vote in the first round of the French Presidential elections. 34 After this victory in the first round of voting, the majority of French citizens took to protesting and demonstrating against Le Pen. 35 Protests along with attacks from his competitor Jacques Chirac caused Chirac who was the current President of France to win the election, with Le Pen gaining only 17.9% of the vote. 36 Even though Le Pen did not win the election it showed that he was a viable candidate and that there was a large enough portion of the population that would elect him into office if the correct conditions were there. The Algerian War especially the period known as the Battle of Algiers brought about the widespread use of torture and along with it discrimination against the Muslim population of Algeria. The use of torture by the French was in response to the use of Terrorism by the FLN in an attempt to stop the bombings and end the war. The cycle of torture to combat terrorism prolonged the war and that along with the Fourth Republic‘s inability to rule effectively led to the failure of the government and brought about the creation of the Fifth Republic. When France finally allowed Algeria to be an independent country it shifted the power away from the Pieds-Noirs which forced them to relocate to France. With their move to France along with large numbers of Muslims and other North African immigrants tensions grew between those of European ancestry and those of Muslim ancestry. These differences allow the French government to treat the Arab immigrants with less respect than the rest of the French population which caused many riots in the last ten years about the place of immigrants in French society. The immigration caused by the end of the Algerian War has also left an impact on French politics and has led to the reemergence of the extreme nationalists. 33 Richard J.
