📅 4 Augustus 1920 📍 Frankrijk

A law of 4 August 1920 modified provisions of the 1919 legislation concerning political rights for Algerian “indigènes.” The change belongs to a sequence of tightly limited reforms that managed demands for representation without dismantling the colonial hierarchy. Distinguishing the dates and scope of each law matters: reform for selected groups did not equal self-government or universal citizenship.
