I'd recommend the film, available on DVD now, The Battle of Algiers. Quite a controversial film when released and now regarded as a classic - with many lessons for today. Saw an article in a learned journal recommending it, now cannot recall the source.

Secondly, although again not reading material, the very short powerpoint by Jeff Jonas is very telling and for an American audience more so:
