Morocco, in the Islamic world of North Africa, is currently at the forefront of the clash between Western-style development and the politicized Islam that now pervades the Arab world. By applying globalization theory to detailed accounts of everyday life in an Arab society, Cohen and Jaidi, trace the development of contemporary Morocco. Although it is among one of the most liberalized Islamic states, Morocco is currently in the midst of a revival of politicized Islam with its own globalizing agenda. Although it is extremely close to the West in terms of physical proximity, and it is a favoured spot for Western tourists, its closest neighbours in social terms are Algeria, Libya, and Tunisia, all of which have directly experienced the effects of politicized Islam in the last quarter century. In this revealing book, uniquely suited to students, the authors detail how this clash pervades Moroccan culture and society, and what it can tell us about the effects of globalization on the Arab world. Concise, descriptive, interdisciplinary, and theoretically informed, this book is an ideal introduction to a topical and timely issue in the increasingly globalized world.
