This chapter explores how the Maison des étudiants de l’Indochine (MEI) in Paris participated in the shaping of (anti-)imperial identities, from its foundation in the late 1920s to its final renaming in 1972. Established in the Cité universitaire de Paris (CUP), the MEI was first considered as a tool of the associationist policy advocated by French authorities during the Interwar years. It aimed to mix colonized and French students, most of them coming from the Indochinese peninsula. However, criticisms targeting this imperialist initiative appeared as early as the beginning of the MEI’s construction, in 1927. During the following decade, both pro- and anti-colonial activities developed within this Indochinese pavilion, involving the residents and the administration. After WWII, students arriving from Indochina continued to join the newly reopened MEI, albeit the ongoing decolonization movements in Southeast Asia. However, national identities prevailed over imperial ones during this post-war period. While the MEI mainly welcomed Vietnamese and Laotians, Cambodian students benefitted from the erection of a Maison des étudiants du Cambodge (MCAM). Firstly renamed “Maisons des étudiants vietnamiens et laotiens”, the MEI eventually became “Maison des étudiants de l’Asie du Sud-Est” in 1972, abandoning its imperial dimension eighteen years after the effective decolonization of Vietnam, Laos and Cambodia.
