Session 9: The Nationalist Struggle and the Early Years of Independence

Wed. Dec. 16th - Morocco Presentations!!!


Thurs. Dec 17th (16:00-17:30) – Dr. Daniel Zisenwine

This lecture will analyze the nature of the Moroccan struggle for independence, and the role of political movements and the monarchy in this struggle. We will discuss the monarchy's position in independent Morocco, and its impact on Moroccan society throughout the early years of independence. The post independence period was overshadowed by a host of political, social, and economic challenges which continue to underpin developments in Morocco.
