Beyond the Clash of Civilizations: Political Manipulation, Religion and Terrorism in Driss Chraïbi’s L’homme qui venait du passé
Communities of Fear: The Politics of 'Strangering' and the Ethics of Resistance in Naima El Bezaz's Vinexvrouwen
This article analyses the Moroccan-Dutch author Naima El Bezaz's novel Vinexvrouwen (Suburban Women), which explores the interplay between the representation of migrants' cultural difference, the politics of 'strangering' and the ethics of resistance.

Narrating Cultural Displacement and (Dis)Locating Beur Identity in Fouad Laroui’s De Quel Amour Blessé
