Years of Glory
The compelling true story of Nelly Benatar—a hero of the anti-Fascist North African resistance and humanitarian who changed the course of history for the "last million" escaping the Second World War.

Reimagining the lives of North African Jews
Filling a historical parenthesis
A missing piece in the historiography of modern Morocco is the subject of the Second World War and its aftermath, raising the question of why this absence exists, and what can be done to fill it. W
A History of Modern Morocco
Morocco is notable for its stable and durable monarchy, its close ties with the West, its vibrant cultural life and its centrality to regional politics. This book, by distinguished historian Susan Gilson Miller, offers a richly documented survey of modern Moroccan history. Arguing that pragmatism rather than ideology has shaped the monarchy's response to crisis, the book begins with the French invasion of Algeria in 1830 and Morocco's abortive ef…
Representations of the "Other/s" in the Mediterranean World and their Impact on the Region
A collection of essays about the representation of the 'other' across the Mediterranean region throughout history and during the present day
Of time and the city
This paper explores Clifford Geertz's thinking about cities and modernity in the Moroccan context. From the historian's perspective, Geertz made important contributions to the study of Moroccan urbanism. In his writing on Sefrou between the 1960s and the mid-1980s, he mapped out how material changes in the city accompanied an emerging sense of a localised urban consciousness. By asking the eternal question, ‘For whom is the city made?’ he showed …
Finding Order in the Moroccan City
Finding Order in the Moroccan City
Maghrib more than a century ago, scholars have specu lated about the North African city and what makes it different from the city of the West. Historians, sociolo gists, anthropologists, urban planners, geographers, architects, art historians, and even literary critics have searched for the paradigmatic Islamic city, debated about its essential character, and lamented how it has been transformed by modernity. The tentacles of this discussion are …
Apportioning Sacred Space in a Moroccan City
In late 19th century Morocco, ideological issues such as nationalism, secularization, and colonialism came to bear on urban society and on the relations among ethnic groups in the city. This study focuses on inter-communal relations in the coastal city of Tangier, the main port for European entry into Morocco, as an example of a "traditional" Islamic city undergoing rapid modernization. Using archival sources and contemporay ethnographic studies,…

Crisis and community
History is full of cataclysmic events that mark the end of one era and the beginning of another. Every society has its own particular calendar of catastrophes, engraved in memory and marked by ritual. So it is with Morocco, where the date 1844 looms large. That summer, a French naval and land force attacked the domains of Sultan Mulay Abd ar-Rahman and brought an abrupt end to Morocco's self-imposed isolation from European affairs. The coastal to…
