AB - This paper deals with both the ways of describing wars and the mechanism of memory formation in current French history textbooks. A comparative analysis between successful and unsuccessful wars of twentieth-century France-i.e., the two World Wars and the colonial wars in Indochina and Algeria-shows how textbooks, as ‘apparatuses of social memory’, have reconstructed the past and generated discourses of war commemoration. This paper focuses on how the textbooks help students create various memories about the above-mentioned wars. The textbooks, by showing various, albeit not all, aspects of the two World Wars, describe them as an object which should be remembered particularly because they, despite many traumas they left, were victorious. Meanwhile, the textbooks emphasize that the French colonial wars still remain a humiliating history to be cleared off when referred to in the frame of decolonization.
