The Maghrib's core states--Morocco, Algeria, and Tunisia--are confronted by many of the same dire political, social, and economic circumstances as the Arab and other Muslim countries farther east. However, they are often overlooked during debates over the future of the Middle East. This volume focuses on Islamic movements, emphasizing the importance of the Berber dimension of contemporary North African society and politics, and highlighting a crucial transnational perspective that underscores the Maghrib’s ties to Europe. All of this is set against a backdrop of larger questions of history, memory, and national identity.
