description | Since the turn to the 20th century, the waterfront of the northern Moroccan metropolis of Tangier has experienced numerous reconfigurations, from the international period to the recent visions of urban development aiming, first of all, at its coastline. On the one hand, this article aims to show the urbanistic effects of the development of a city of age-old maritime trade into a literal port city and, finally, of the relocation of its port to the periphery of the agglomeration. On the other hand, the article will demonstrate the concomitant evolution of large parts of the coast into spaces dedicated to leisure and pleasure activities. At the same time, the article will present the fragmenting socio-spatial repercussions of these transformations. Conceptually, they fit into the context of several globalisations (in the liberal and neoliberal mode) experienced by Tangier and its surroundings: the worldwide dispersion of the urban model of waterfront development; the integration into global flows and networks of capital, production, and tourism; the historical and current internationalisation of actors; the worlding and urban marketing of a city in the Global South; and a certain globalisation of a more chaste morality. |
