Abstract :
[fr] L’article met en évidence la perception, en Belgique francophone, de la première phase de la guerre d’Indochine (1946-1950) et, plus particulièrement, son impact sur l’image de la France. Il montre comment, dans le contexte d’un conflit encore considéré comme colonial, la France a dû faire face à une double contre-propagande, l’une d’extrême-gauche, l’autre dans le camp catholique. Il souligne enfin l’absence d’une réponse française appropriée, cohérente et efficace. [en] This contribution will study the image of the first phase of the Indochina War (1946-1950) – and through it the global image of France – in French-speaking Belgium. As the war was then seen as aiming at a restoration of the colonial order, the French cause was harmed by a double counter-propaganda. One was of course coming from the far-left but, more surprisingly, the other came from Catholic circles. One must note that the French counterattack was lacking pertinence, coherence or efficiency.
