Description
Summary:This article analyzes transformations of the Amazighe identity in Morocco. The vindication of Berber identity by nativist Moroccan associations through the end of the 20th century was characteristically self-restrained. Increasingly however, organizers are adopting forms of mobilization common to collective action including boycotts, sit-ins, discussion circles and other forms of public protest.
