HS 312 - Contemporary History of Morocco And North Africa

This course focuses on the contemporary developments of Morocco and the rest of North Africa. The major themes to be covered are more or less related to North Africa’s steady integration into the world system during the last two centuries.

By looking at the region’s growing involvement in world affairs the aim is to see how this involvement has influenced North African traditional societies and contribute to the progress of state modernization during the 20th century.
