Professor McBroom argues that the events of the Holocaust do not require special, unique or extreme explanations. Rather the behavior of victims, perpetrators, and bystanders can be understood and explained by established principles of social science. As such, events like those of the Holocaust are natural phenomena and have not only occurred in instances other than the “final solution,’ but can happen any time that certain relatively few conditions are present.

The French of Algeria, as they are commonly called today, remain a distinct yet waning subculture. Aspects of their lives continue to provide fertile ground for the media, including, most recently a widely published discussion of the use of torture and murder by French generals during the Algerian War (1955-1962). Publications continue to proliferate on all aspects and from all sides of the French Algerian experience as the time passed permits unprecedented examination of this controversial period in history from 1830 when European colonization began until today.
