In recent critical studies, according to Gibson, a sustained and profound critique of Fanon has been launched by feminist and postcolonialist theorists over the past decade, focusing on 'Algeria Unveiled'. By and large, this critique explores what Fanon calls the 'historical dynamism of the veil': the ways in which women strategically donned or removed the veil to subvert French colonialism, and the role women played in the Algerian War. Some theorists criticize Fanon for eulogizing the retrograde tradition of the veil and for 'normalizing gender inequality'. Others reproach him for his Orientalizing views. A number of critics confuse his pronouncements on the impact of the war which revolutionized the Algerian society and gender relation with the reactionary policies implemented in post-independent Algeria. To fathom the political and ethical concerns raised by Fanon, concerns which such criticism eschews, I propose to read Fanon's 'Algeria Unveiled' in tandem with Bourdieu's Algeria 1960 against the physical and symbolic violence to which Algerian women were subjected as they were coerced to remove their veil.
