Morocco: in Transit

In the framework of Cycle Origins

11 and 12 April

Unlike the stereotypes that portray a society languishing in its past, the sessions concerned with Morocco aim to emphasise the overlapping of a wide range of realities and dynamics: from the movements of democratic opposition during the reign of Hassan II through to the processes of transformation that are presently occurring in all social milieus and taking in clearly differing cultures and traditions.

With the participation of:  Driss Bouissef Rekab, Abdel Aziz El Mountassir, M’hamed Abdelouahed Allaoui, Salwa L’Aouaji El Gharbi
