Ecologies of tafaha
This article maps Morocco’s passage from early networked mobilizations to a platformized attention regime in which tafaha – mediocrity as high-arousal, low-verification participation – becomes normalized by metric incentives and opportunistic state steering. To bring this idea home, we (1) conceptualize tafaha as an ecology rather than a taste judgment, (2) introduce the internetary as a praxis for understanding publics routed through platforms r…
Leadership and Digital Gap in Post-Colonial Societies
Digital technology has altogether transformed the ways people communicate, socialize and disseminate knowledge. Traditional communication tools and outlets have been replaced by digital devices which represent a clear paradigm shift in the conception of society or more accurately, networked society. Building up virtual communities, online identities and digital cultures has become a normative practice that has been fostered by new technologies. T…
Traveling Cultural Studies
The US -led military offensive against Iraq in 1991 was so shocking that it prompted a group of young scholars, including myself, at the Department of English in Fez to rethink the idea of teaching English in the Moroccan university. In response to the attack, they reconceptualized the politics of the taught and untaught, presence and absence in the curricula towards freeing them from the overwhelming specter of ‘white mythologies’ and of ‘grand …

It puts into question the ideological basis of the principle of th…
Survey on Moroccan Youth
During 2010 the authors conducted a public opinion survey of youth involving 1,054 respondents in Morocco. The survey focused on questions of identity and religious affiliation. It revealed a statistically significant shift in positive affiliation with Sufism among the randomly selected respondents. The findings reveal that among Moroccan youth the adoption of Sufism's goals of moderation, introspection, spirituality, and mutual respect may be in…
Agency Relocated
[A] doubling, dissembling image of being in at least two places at once which makes it impossible for the devalued, insatiable evolué... to accept the coloniser's invitation to identity: ‘You're a doctor, a writer, a student, you're different, you're one of us.’ It is precisely in that ambivalent use of ‘different’—to be different from those that are different makes you the Same—that the Unconscious speaks of the form of Otherness, the tethered s…
