Moroccan Culture in the 21st Century: Globalization, Challenges and Prospects by Mohamed Dellal; Amar Sellam
What does Moroccan culture mean to a group of Moroccan academics at this decisive conjuncture and turning point of the 21st Century characterized by the advent and the shaking impact of the Arab Spring? How does culture, broken down in terms of intergenerational values, cultural identity related to language, language behavior, socio-political debate, the meaning of space and place, and the meaning of ancient festivals fare in today's Moroccan socio-cultural and socio-political contexts? Marrying theory and fieldwork, the authors tackle these themes insightfully using in-depth analysis and investigation.
