Abstract

This article critically examines the role of the Berbers in Algeria, with a particular focus on the complexities of coexistence between the country's two principal ethnic communities - the Berbers, the autochthonous population of North Africa, and the Arabs. It analyzes the key stages in the evolution of Berber particularism in Algeria, including the historical foundations of the Kabyle tradition, the significance of the Kabyle factor in Algerian resistance to French colonial rule, and the contemporary socio-political and cultural engagement of the Kabyle community within Algerian society. Special attention is given to the ongoing efforts to standardize the Berber language, as well as the dedicated activism within the Berber cultural movement. Furthermore, the article examines the growing concerns among both Algerian authorities and the international community regarding the emergence of the Movement for the self-proclamation of the Kabyle State.
