  • KIVUNIM Comes to Morocco 2018 Final
    KIVUNIM Comes to Morocco March 15-28, 2018 (arriving from Spain and Portugal) PT 1 Charles Landelle-“Juive de Tanger” Unlike our astronauts who travel to "outer space," going to Morocco is a journey into "inner space." For Morocco reveals under every tree and shrub a spiritual reality that is unlike anything we have experienced before, particularly as Jewish travelers. We enter an Islamic world that we have been conditioned to expect as hostile. Instead we find a warmth and welcome that both captivates and inspires. We immediately feel at home and respected as we enter a unique multi-cultural society whose own 2011 constitution states: "Its unity...is built on the convergence of its Arab-Islamic, Amazigh and Saharan-Hassani components, is nurtured and enriched by African, Andalusian, Hebraic and Mediterranean constituents." A journey with KIVUNIM through Morocco is to glimpse the possibilities of the future, of a different future. At our alumni conference in December, 2015, King Mohammed VI of Morocco honored us with the following historic and challenge-containing words: “…these (KIVUNIM) students, who are members of the American Jewish community, will be different people in their community tomorrow. Not just different, but also valuable, because they have made the effort to see the world in a different light, to better understand our intertwined and unified traditions, paving the way for a different future, for a new, shared destiny full of the promises of history, which, as they have realized in Morocco, is far from being relegated to the past.” The following words of Rabbi Abraham Joshua Heschel remind us of the purpose of our travels this year.

Casablanca, economic heart of the Kingdom, lives at a frenetic pace. Business and art go side by side here, often intermingling. It is here, above all, that tones and trends are set.

  • The Architectural Representation of Islam Tural This Book Is a Study of Dutch Mosque Designs, Objects of Heated Public Debate
    THE ARCHI THE R EPRESEN tat T EC THE ARCHITECTURAL REPRESentatION OF ISlam T ION OF OF ION This book is a study of Dutch mosque designs, objects of heated public UR debate. Until now, studies of diaspora mosque designs have largely A consisted of normative architectural critiques that reject the ubiquitous L ‘domes and minarets’ as hampering further Islamic-architectural evolution. I The Architectural Representation of Islam: Muslim-Commissioned Mosque SL Design in The Netherlands represents a clear break with the architectural A critical narrative, and meticulously analyzes twelve design processes M for Dutch mosques. It shows that patrons, by consciously selecting, steering and replacing their architects, have much more influence on their mosques than has been generally assumed. Through the careful transformation of specific building elements from Islamic architectural history to a new context, they literally aim to ‘construct’ the ultimate Islam. Their designs thus evolve not in opposition to Dutch society, but to those versions of Islam that they hold to be false. ERIC ROOSE THE ARCHITECTURAL Eric Roose (1967) graduated with M.A. degrees in Public International Law, Cultural Anthropology, and Architectural History (the latter cum laude) from REPRESENtatION OF ISLAM Leiden University. Between 2004 and 2008 he conducted PhD research at Leiden University, and between 2005 and 2008 was also an Affiliated PhD Fellow at the International Institute for the Study of Islam in the Modern MUSLIM-COMMISSIONED World (ISIM) in Leiden.

  • The Grand Tour of Morocco
    THE GRAND TOUR OF MOROCCO Laurel Kuepker, Trinity High School, HEBISD [email protected] Objective: Students will be able to identify examples of cultural diffusion and syncretism in the country of Morocco. AP World History standard(s) covered: o Key Concept 3.1 3D Cross-cultural exchanges were fostered by the intensification of existing, or the creation of new, networks of trade and communication. D. Increased cross-cultural interactions resulted in the diffusion of literary, artistic, and cultural traditions. o Key Concept 3.2C Empires collapsed and were reconstituted; in some regions new state forms emerged . C. Some states synthesized local and borrowed traditions. Geography TEKS: (16) Culture. The student understands how the components of culture affect the way people live and shape the characteristics of regions. The student is expected to: (A) describe distinctive cultural patterns and landscapes associated with different places in Texas, the United States, and other regions of the world and how these patterns influenced the processes of innovation and diffusion; (B) describe elements of culture, including language, religion, beliefs and customs, institutions, and technologies; (C) explain ways various groups of people perceive the characteristics of their own and other cultures, places, and regions differently; and (D) compare life in a variety of urban and rural areas in the world to evaluate political, economic, social, and environmental changes. Rationale: Students often have a difficult time envisioning the places that we discuss in AP World History. A lot of my students also have a poor “mental map.” This project is designed to immerse students in Morocco through the aid of Google Maps and allow them to “fly in” to Morocco.
