Bandung, Belgrade and Havana Conferences are the most brilliant stars of the Bandung Constellation. Bandung was the “big bang” generating conferences, associations, institutions, research centres, scientific disciplines, festivals… related to Africa and Asia. Belgrade transcended the geographical basis (Asia and Africa) of Bandung to a set of principles devoid of geographical limits. Thanks to Belgrade, Bandung became universal. Belgrade also revealed the two “wings” of Non-alignment : the “radical” one who wanted to put into priority the eradication of colonialism, imperialism and neo-colonialism ; and the “moderate” one who preferred to focus their effort to maintain peace. The radical wing of Non-Alignment found the opportunity to manifest for the first time in Havana. While the moderate wing developed into regular summits of Non-Alignment to the present day.

Darwis Khudori, La France et Bandung : les batailles diplomatiques entre la France, l’Afrique du Nord et l’Indochine en Indonésie (1950-1955). Avec une préface de Hugues Tertrais. Paris, Les Indes Savantes, 2021, 16x24 cm, 310 pages, ISBN : 978-2-84654-541-9
La France a été très concernée par la Conférence de Bandung car cette réunion afro-asiatique devait discuter des problèmes et des intérêts communs en Afrique et en Asie dans les domaines économiques, sociaux et culturels, mais aussi en matière de souveraineté nationale, de colonialisme et de racisme. Et cette réunion était organisée sans impliquer les puissances coloniales, dont la France. Cependant, à la veille de la Conférence, la France a été impliquée dans deux problèmes coloniaux épineux. L’un est l’Afrique du Nord dont les entités territoriales (Algérie, Maroc, Tunisie) se sont engagées ensemble dans des mouvements de libération nationale contre l’occupation coloniale française.
