Cevap
The correct pairings are: Four Communes matches Senegalese coastal towns whose inhabitants enjoyed full French political rights and citizenship; Indigénat Code matches A legal system that imposed arbitrary penal powers, forced labor, and summary punishment on colonial subjects; Policy of Assimilation matches An administrative policy aimed at turning African colonial subjects into culturally and legally French citizens; Policy of Association matches A pragmatic policy that recognized indigenous customs and institutions while keeping Africans under French authority.
Each colonial concept correctly aligns with its administrative role: the Four Communes were the Senegalese coastal towns granted full citizenship; the Indigénat Code was the oppressive legal system enforced on colonial subjects; Assimilation was the policy of total cultural and political transformation into French society; and Association was the later policy of governing through recognized local traditions.
