Download or read book Droits de citoyennet des femmes au Maghreb written by Belarbi Aïcha and published by . This book was released on 1997 with total page 336 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Les essais publiés dans cet ouvrage sont le fruit d'une recherche-action réalisée par l'IMED avec le soutien de la Commission européenne. Il s'agit de la première phase d'un projet d'actions positives pilote pour le développement des droits de citoyenneté des femmes au Maghreb et, notamment, au Maroc et en Tunisie. Il s'agit aussi de la première étape d'un programme bien plus vaste sur les droits de citoyenneté visant à la construction d'une citoyenneté euro-méditerranéenne. Si le thème de la citoyenneté en Méditerranée est abordé en commençant par les femmes c'est parce que les droits des femmes passent par tous les problèmes de la citoyenneté et, en Méditerranée, ils en sont un véritable banc d'essai. Qu'il s'agisse de droits civils, de droits politiques ou de droits sociaux, la question essentielle pour la citoyenneté c'est la question de l'universalité des droits, à savoir l'égalité de tous les citoyens devant ces droits. Et bien, en Méditerranée ce problème n'est pas toujours résolu pour une multitude de femmes qui doivent encore se confronter avec la discrimination sexuelle. Qui plus est, les droits des femmes assument également un caractère central vis-à-vis d'une autre problématique cruciale de la citoyenneté: la dialectique égalité formelle / égalité substantielle. Dans le premier sens, l'égalité comporte la reconnaissance des mêmes droits à tous les citoyens et une même sujétion à la loi, dans le deuxième, elle comporte la prévision d'interventions économiques, sociales et culturelles, qui doivent éviter de rendre vaine l'égalité formelle face aux sujets les plus faibles. Voilà pourquoi l'identification d'actions positives pour l'égalité des chances entre les hommes et les femmes a représenté le point d'arrivée du travail illustré dans cet ouvrage. Des actions positives qui doivent combattre non seulement la marginalisation économique et l'exclusion sociale, mais aussi les causes de la discrimination sexuelle.
Download or read book Historical Dictionary of Morocco written by Aomar Boum and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2016-06-02 with total page 1003 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A historical reference work on Morocco must take as its subject al-maghrib al-aqsa (the far west) as the Arabic scholars have generally referred to the approximate region of present-day Morocco, roughly the north-west corner of Africa but at times including much of the Iberian peninsula, because the modern nation-state is a relatively recent creation owing much to events in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. External influences on Morocco tend to come across the narrow straits of Gibraltar to the north, from the east along the Mediterranean litoral, or up from the Sahara. In each case, access is constrained by geography and continued control from outside the region has been difficult to manage over the long term. Although many of the dynasties that came to power in Morocco conquered much broader regions, history and topology have so conspired that there is still more coherence to an historical focus on al-maghrib al-aqsa than is the case for most modern nation-states. This third edition of Historical Dictionary of Morocco contains a chronology, an introduction, a glossary, and an extensive bibliography. The dictionary section has over 600 cross-referenced entries on important personalities, politics, economy, foreign relations, religion, and culture. This book is an excellent access point for students, researchers, and anyone wanting to know more about Morocco.
Download or read book Medicine and the Saints written by Ellen J. Amster and published by University of Texas Press. This book was released on 2013-08-15 with total page 475 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The colonial encounter between France and Morocco took place not only in the political realm but also in the realm of medicine. Because the body politic and the physical body are intimately linked, French efforts to colonize Morocco took place in and through the body. Starting from this original premise, Medicine and the Saints traces a history of colonial embodiment in Morocco through a series of medical encounters between the Islamic sultanate of Morocco and the Republic of France from 1877 to 1956. Drawing on a wealth of primary sources in both French and Arabic, Ellen Amster investigates the positivist ambitions of French colonial doctors, sociologists, philologists, and historians; the social history of the encounters and transformations occasioned by French medical interventions; and the ways in which Moroccan nationalists ultimately appropriated a French model of modernity to invent the independent nation-state. Each chapter of the book addresses a different problem in the history of medicine: international espionage and a doctor’s murder; disease and revolt in Moroccan cities; a battle for authority between doctors and Muslim midwives; and the search for national identity in the welfare state. This research reveals how Moroccans ingested and digested French science and used it to create a nationalist movement and Islamist politics, and to understand disease and health. In the colonial encounter, the Muslim body became a seat of subjectivity, the place from which individuals contested and redefined the political.

This book was released on 2023-05-31 with total page 445 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The volume serves as reference point for anyone interested in the Middle East and North Africa as well as for those interested in women's rights and family law, generally or in the MENA region. It is the only book covering personal status codes of nearly a dozen countries. It covers Muslim family law in the following Middle East/north African countries: Tunisia, Egypt, Morocco, Algeria, Iraq, Lebanon, Jordan, Israel, Palestine, and Qatar. Some of these countries were heavily affected by the Arab Spring, and some were not. With authors from around the world, each chapter of the book provides a history of personal status law both before and after the revolutionary period. Tunisia emerges as the country that made the most significant progress politically and with respect to women's rights. A decade on from the Arab Spring, across the region there is more evidence of stasis than change.

Download or read book Morocco written by Marvine Howe and published by Oxford University Press on Demand. This book was released on 2005-06-30 with total page 443 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Morocco, Marvine Howe, a former correspondent for The New York Times, presents an incisive account of the Moroccan kingdom and its people, past and present. She provides a frank portrait of the late King Hassan, whom she credits with laying the foundations of a modern state, and she highlights the pressures his successor King Mohammed VI has come under to transform the monarchy into a modern democracy. Howe addresses emerging issues--equal rights for women, the correction of glaring economic disparities--and asks the question: can this ancient Muslim kingdom embrace democracy in an era of deepening divisions between Islam and the West?
Download or read book Voices of Resistance written by Alison Baker and published by SUNY Press. This book was released on 1998-01-01 with total page 366 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Providing new information on women's participation in the Moroccan independence movement, Voices of Resistance offers a rare opportunity to hear Moroccan women speak freely about their personal lives. Each woman is introduced in terms of her family background and personal style, and the interviews are given texture and context by references to Moroccan history and popular culture, including contemporary songs and poems. These women are storytellers, and they lived through stirring times. Their active struggle against French colonialism also challenged and redefined traditional Moroccan ideas about women's roles in society. The narratives reconstruct the little-known history of Moroccan feminism and nationalism, and probe the lives of a remarkable group of Islamic women whose voices have never been heard until now.
Download or read book Beyond Feminism and Islamism written by Doris H. Gray and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2012-11-08 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Are women in North Africa and the Middle East 'feminist'? Or is being a Muslim incompatible with feminism? Is there such a thing as 'Islamic feminism'? Through interviews with Moroccan activists and jurists - both male and female - and by situating these interviews within their socio-political and economic contexts, Doris Gray addresses these questions. By doing so, she attempts to move beyond the simple bifurcation of 'feminist' and 'Islamist' to look at the many facets of internal gender discourse within one Muslim country, allowing for a more nuanced understanding of the discussion on women's rights in the Muslim world in general. The status and the role of women is one of the most hotly debated topics throughout the Middle East and North Africa, and this is particularly visible through this discussion of what it means to engage with and promote feminist thought and actions in the region.
Download or read book The Moroccan Women s Rights Movement written by Amy Young Evrard and published by Syracuse University Press. This book was released on 2014-06-09 with total page 316 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Among various important efforts to address women’s issues in Morocco, a particular set of individuals and associations have formed around two specific goals: reforming the Moroccan Family Code and raising awareness of women’s rights. Evrard chronicles the history of the women’s rights movement, exploring the organizational structure, activities, and motivations with specific attention to questions of legal reform and family law. Employing ethnographic scrutiny, Evrard presents the stories of the individual women behind the movement and the challenges they faced. Given the vast reform of the Moroccan Family Code in 2004, and the emphasis on the role of women across the Middle East and North Africa today, this book makes a timely argument for the analysis of women’s rights as both global and local in origin, evolution, and application.

The book also engages critically with the work of other Muslim feminists, using frameworks and approaches developed in the works of Muslim reformist thinkers, namely Mohammed Arkoun and Nasr Abu Zaid, with the aim of engaging the theorization of this emerging Feminism.
