Abstract:

This contribution aims to study the sports careers and biographical trajectories of French athletes from Algeria selected to compete at the Summer Olympics from 1948 to 1984. They are part of the ambiguities and turbulences of the twentieth century: decolonization and globalization, deindustrialization and emancipation, democratization and professionalization of sport. Therefore, the article provides an analysis of the construction of sports excellence proposed at the crossroads of the history of French Algerians, elite sport, and Olympism from the colonial period to the postcolonial era. Relying mainly on ten "oral history" interviews with champions who participated in the Olympic Games, we highlight several determinants structuring their itineraries. These include their urban youth in Algerian and French clubs, sports networks during the Algerian War, the role of the French army, their predominantly amateur athletic careers, their Olympic consecration, and their retraining.

摘要：

这项研究的目的是研究来自阿尔及利亚的法国运动员的体育事业和传记轨迹，这些运动员被选出参加1948年至1984年夏季奥运会。它们是20世纪模棱两可和动荡的一部分：非殖民化和全球化，去工业化和解放，民主化和体育专业化。因此，本文对从殖民时期到后殖民时期的法国阿尔及利亚人，精英体育和奥林匹克运动会的历史交叉点提出的卓越体育建设进行了分析。我们主要依靠对参加奥运会的冠军进行的十次“口述历史”采访，我们重点介绍了构成其行程的几个决定因素。其中包括他们在阿尔及利亚和法国俱乐部中的城市青年，
