Book Synopsis Moroccan Emigrants and Political Culture by : Jaouad Didi
Download or read book Moroccan Emigrants and Political Culture written by Jaouad Didi and published by LAP Lambert Academic Publishing. This book was released on 2010-04 with total page 108 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Recently, Morocco decided to let Moroccans living abroad apply their citizens' right (voting) in order to actively participate in the national reforms. This community is thorn between two cultures: the culture of country of origin and the host country. In this respect, there is the concern that collective actions such as voting of this particular community has been studied more from the structural perspective and less from the cultural side. Hence, the choice of this book is strategic because it aims to grasp the patterns of political participation of this community based on their political socialization, political culture, and civic culture. In other words, this book will determine the appropriate socialization agencies that can generate compatible micro and macro politics that can match the political culture of the segments studied, assess their civic culture and determine their participative role in the political arena. This book should be a great tool for students and professors working in the fields of social and political sciences or for the different ministries and foreign embassies in Morocco, as well as to anyone else interested in this issue.
Book Synopsis Sufism and Politics in Morocco by : Abdelilah Bouasria
Download or read book Sufism and Politics in Morocco written by Abdelilah Bouasria and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2015-02-11 with total page 252 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Presenting a political history and sociology of Moroccan Sufism from colonialism to the modern day, this book studies the Sufi model of Master and Disciple in relation to social and political life, comparing the different eras of acquiescent versus dissident Sufism. This comparative fieldwork study offers new perspectives on the connection between the monarchy and mystic realms with a specific coverage of the Boutchichi order and Abdessalam Yassine’s Al Adl Wal Ihsane, examining the myth of apolitical Sufism throughout the Middle East and North Africa. Drawing on Michel Foucault and James Scott, this book fuses thinking about the political dimension of Sufism, a "hidden transcript," involving power struggles, patronage and justice and its esoteric spiritual ethics of care. Addressing the lacuna in English language literature on the Boutchichi Sufi order in Morocco, this book will be of interest to students and scholars of Islamic Studies, Comparative Politics and the MENA region.
Book Synopsis A Comparative Political Economy of Tunisia and Morocco by : Gregory White
Download or read book A Comparative Political Economy of Tunisia and Morocco written by Gregory White and published by State University of New York Press. This book was released on 2001-07-26 with total page 268 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book examines the profound impact of European integration on two North African countries, Tunisia and Morocco. Confronting the theoretical literatures on the "entanglements" of the domestic and international realms, and the intricate role played by the middle-income state in the international arena, White provides the first detailed comparison of Tunisia and Morocco's post-independence political economies, especially in the context of the "Euro-Mediterranean Partnerships" signed with the European Union in the late 1990s. North African states must act, on the one hand, as entrepreneurs seeking to encourage trade and attract foreign investment within the domestic economy, in the process of crafting foreign economic policy with the European Union. On the other hand, such states are constrained by domestic pressures such as imperatives to secure job creation and maintain internal security. Countries on the periphery are therefore faced with two distinct questions: first, how does a middle-income state balance its conflicting roles and manage its relations with a regional power; and second, how does the relationship with the outside world affect key domestic actors? Answering these questions is one of the primary challenges facing Tunisia and Morocco in the new decade.

Book Synopsis Politics and Power in the Maghreb by : Michael Willis
Download or read book Politics and Power in the Maghreb written by Michael Willis and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2014-04-17 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The overthrow of the regime of President Ben Ali in Tunisia on 14 January 2011 took the world by surprise. The popular revolt in this small Arab country and the effect it had on the wider Arab world prompted questions as to why there had been so little awareness of it up until that point. It also revealed a more general lack of knowledge about the surrounding western part of the Arab world, or the Maghreb, which had long attracted a tiny fraction of the outside interest shown in the eastern Arab world of Egypt, the Levant and the Gulf. This book examines the politics of the three states of the central Maghreb--Algeria, Tunisia and Morocco--since their achievement of independence from European colonial rule in the 1950s and 1960s. It explains the political dynamics of the region by looking at the roles played by the military, political parties and Islamist movements and addresses factors such as Berber identity and economics, as well as how the states of the region interact with each other and with the wider world.
Book Synopsis Rap Beyond Resistance by : Cristina Moreno Almeida
Download or read book Rap Beyond Resistance written by Cristina Moreno Almeida and published by Springer. This book was released on 2017-09-15 with total page 189 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book fills the gap in existing literature by exploring other forms of political discourses in non-Western rap music. Theoretically, it challenges and explores resistance, arguing towards the need for different epistemological frameworks in which to look at narratives of cultural resistance in the Arabic-speaking world. Empirically, it provides an in-depth look at the politics of rap culture in Morocco. Rap Beyond Resistance bridges the humanities and social sciences in order to de-Westernize cultural studies, presenting the political narratives of the Moroccan rap scene beyond secular liberal meanings of resistance. By exploring what is political, this book brings light to a vibrant and varied rap scene diverse in its political discourses–with an emphasis on patriotism and postcolonial national identity–and uncovers different ways in which young artists are being political beyond ‘radical lyrics’.
