What is the proportion of Harki descendants in today's French Algerian community?

score:1

Accepted answer

i do not have the exact proportion because as you know ethnic statistics are forbidden in France. However Harki descendants are estimated to be between 500 to 800k. The total population of people with Algerian roots is estimated to be about 1.8 million. A lot of Algerian emigrated during and after the Civil War that occured in the 90s in Algeria, at a point that some specific immigration rules exist for Algerian people (more difficult now that before). It is also to be noted that some Harkis did hide during the Aftermath of the independence war in 1962 and came in France later on. As such they may be not recorded as Harkis.
