Students and educators must recognize the broader implications of the Algerian War and adopt innovative pedagogical practices to identify and learn from historical misrepresentation. These objectives are imperative given the West's misunderstanding and mischaracterization of Islam and the Muslim-majority world UR - https://search.ebscohost.com/login.aspx?direct=true&scope=site&db=nlebk&AN=1108285 ER -
