Primary Evidence

"The day after independence, the redistribution of colonists’ lands occupied the minds of the leaders and elites. After the 1965 coup d’état, the industry was socialized under the guidance of Abdesselam and a group of French and Algerian theorists, inspired by the University of Grenoble economist, Stan de Bemis. The dominant philosophy was known as “industrializing industry.” Starting from the top, much like the Chinese had done with the Great Leap Forward, it was necessary to develop basic industries which were supposed to elevate lighter industry."
