This article looks at Abdelwahab Meddeb’s unique contribution to deconstructive thought through his use of poetic language and a language of double-matrice. His poetic language of the tombeau is a contemplation on the dead which deconstructs spatio-temporal differences between here/there, self/other, the living and the dead. Ibn Arabi’s presence in Meddeb’s writing is both a tombeau to the Sufi poet and a form of modern mystical writing in and of…
Crowds and Politics in North Africa
Tunisia's women
This paper examines gender politics of the Tunisian revolution and the transitional period from 14 January 2011 to the elections on 23 October 2011 within the theoretical framework of revolutionary 'restoration'. The broader arc of the revolution saw a radical change in Tunisia's gender politics from 'state-feminist' ideology of the pre-revolution period to decentralised 'gender activisms' of the post-revolutionary period. Revolution, however, al…
Gender paradoxes of the Arab Spring
The idea for this collected volume came out of an urgent need to focus on how women are impacting and being impacted by the on-going transformations in the Arab Spring geography. The events in Tuni
North African Cinema in a Global Context
This book provides insight into contemporary film production from North African countries referred to as the Maghreb. Focus is both on the socio-economic context of film production, which suffers some of the same setbacks and obstacles as other regions of the developing world, and on the thematic details treated in the films themselves. The book delves into ideas such as gender and sexuality, national identity, political conflict, and issues of p…

The Myth of Masculinity in the Films of Merzak Allouache
The Algerian filmmaker Merzak Allouache has made a series of films that describe the formations of masculinity in Algeria of the post-Independence period. The present paper focuses on three feature films made between the dates of 1976 and 2002, tracing the director's initial framing of mythical discourses of masculinity to an increasingly oppositional and alternative gender construction of the last film. The paper locates a nexus of discourses (c…
Interview with Merzak Allouache
The interview transcribed below took place on 30 April 2005 and is part of a conversation that I had with Merzak Allouache over several days. Our discussions centred on the topics of Islam, politics and sexuality in his films, but the segment of the interview reproduced for this publication focuses on censorship in Algeria. In my introductory comments I argue that there are several contradictions that permeate Allouache's interpretation of censor…
A writing in points
This article is about a semi‐autobiographical novel by the Moroccan writer Abdelkebir Khatibi. In this novel, the memories of childhood during the colonial administration intermingle with the author's reflections on how the social sciences shaped knowledge of Moroccan space and society. The novel La Mémoire tatouée is at first a conflicted narrative, torn between a critique of the patriarchal social structure of his father and an equally oppressi…
Images of another Tunisia
This article examines a film trilogy by Moncef Dhouib in light of contemporary image production in Tunisian society. The analysis is based on a relation between the ideological production of the image by the state, on the one hand, and oppositional images of religious and mystical practices, on the other. The 'ideological' image is linked to the political situation from Bourguiba until the present time. The secular image is characterised, in cont…
