Opplysninger | Theorizing the histories of colonialism and nationalism in the Arab Maghrib / Edmund Burke III -- The Arab folklorist in a postcolonial period / Abderrahman -- The Moroccan colonial soldiers : between selective memory and collective memory / Driss Maghraoui -- Identity and alienation in postcolonial Libyan literature : the trilogy of Ahmad Ibrahim al-Faqih / Ali Abdullatif Ahmida -- Cartographies of identity : writing Maghribi women as postcolonial subjects / Mona Fayad -- Shadi Abd al-Salam's al-Mumiya : ambivalence and the Egyptian nation-state / Elliot Colla -- Islamism and the recolonization of Algeria / Marnia Lazreg -- Economic reform and Tunisia's hegemonic party : the end of the administrative elite / Stephen J. King -- Dreams and disappointments : postcolonial constructions of "The Maghrib" / David Seddon. - The contributors rethink the history of colonial and nationalist categories and analyses of the Maghrib. Their goal is to explore the ambiguities, failures, and silences manufactured by colonial and nationalist scholarships and present alternative strategies and scholarship to the study of history, culture, and state-society relations in the Maghrib during the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. Despite the fact that the contributors come from different disciplines and perspectives - whether political science, history, or sociology - they share a critical view of the history of the Maghrib, and they approach Maghribi societies not as a footnote to Europe and capitalism, but within its own dynamics.
