The Unanswered El Emir Khaled’s Letter (1919)
Résumé: At the Paris Peace Conference of 1919, the American President Woodrow Wilson introduced fourteen idealistic principles about peace and justice that gave hope to people like the Algerians to claim for their independence. El Emir Khaled, the grandson of El Emir Abd-el-Kader, embraced the principle of self-determination and stirred different views about himself that oscillate between his loyalty to the French Administration and his nationalism. When he attempted to write a petition to President Wilson to ask for his help and intervention to solve the Algerian cause. Unfortunately, the latter did not reply, and this led to raise many questions about his principles. So, this research will reveal the contradictions of Wilson's fable via an analytical reading of El Emir Khaled's petition. In fact, reading the letter shows not only the double standards' attitude of President Wilson and American foreign policy but it also displays evidence that Emir Khaled is a nationalist and he contributed to the maturity of Algerian political consciousness and movement.
