description The history of African anti-colonial movements, especially those present in the French colonies, can be reconstructed thanks to the documentation of the French communists. The documents of the PCF, collected in the Archives départementales de la Seine-Saint Dénis, offer an important point of view on African decolonization. These sources provide the missing piece for a social, political and cultural history of relations between metropolises and colonies and between North and South of the world. Together with the digitization projects of the French sources preserved in the former Soviet archives (today still in Russia) and the documentary mass produced by trade unions and colonial security services, the sources of the PCF are also essential for internationalizing the history of the French Communist Party, reconnecting it to the broader relations between anti-colonial movements and the international communist movement.
