"Indeed, although scholars are increasingly examining the international and transnational dimensions of late colonial conflicts they often eschew the topic of extraterritorial safe havens. Only recently have scholars begun to examine the manner in which external sanctuaries impacted upon the various liberation struggles. This book contributes to the growing literature seeking to redress this gap. It does so by focusing not only on the one movement and conflict that became the trendsetter and inspiration for national liberation movements emerging in its wake but also on a sanctuary-state--West Germany--whose role remains most obscured. The Algerian war's overspill beyond the territorial confines of the imperial heartland was in many ways unparalleled. After all, as Jim House and Neil MacMaster remind us, colonial wars were usually geographically contained events that rarely impinged on the metropoles fighting them. Overspill, when it occurred, generally affected only faraway territories neighbouring a restive colony. In the context of the Algerian war, however, a combination of geographical proximity, lax border controls, lenient immigration and asylum policies, federalist state-structures, a free press and liberal economy all helped turn West Germany into a preferred safe haven and logistical-operational base for the FLN"--Introduction.
