The Evolution of Morocco's Human Rights Movement
Research+Papers, 5th September 2017 The Evolution of Morocco’s Human Rights Movement → Mohamed Kadiri Moroccan protesters carry pro-reform placards, with the one in centre reading in Arabic “Bread, freedom, human dignity”, during a protest in Casablanca, Morocco, March 2011. © EPA The aim of this survey paper is to provide an analytical chronology of the evolution of the Moroccan human rights movement in its political, social, internal and international context.1 Restrictive domestic political conditions constituted a direct cause for the birth of a group of civil associations to defend rights and freedoms, particularly of detained and abducted activists in the 1970s and 1980s. This birth coincided with a global development in which human rights work became one of the main increasingly professionalized civil society actions after the disintegration of the civil rights movements in Europe and the United States in the 1970s. Jumping ahead, the mass popular protests in the region, including in Morocco, in 2010 and 2011 produced a number of new human rights actors. The new Moroccan constitution was an outcome of this activism and consequently gave rise to more human rights work for legal reform in compliance with the constitution. For a long time, the Moroccan state had been suspicious of the motivations and actions of human rights advocates. This suspicion shaped the nature and dynamics of the relationship whereby the state-imposed its political and security prerogatives on the advocates. This restrictive attitude persisted despite the gradual transformation of the regime in the 1990s away from the unchecked use of violence against political opponents. -

A group of online activists launched a campaign in April 2018 to boycott products from three major companies to protest increases in the cost of living, affecting the companies’ stock prices (see Digital Activism). Hundreds of people, including several citizen and online journalists, were arrested in connection with the “Hirak Rif” protests. Several were later sentenced to prison for their reporting on the movement (see Prosecutions and Arrests for Online Activities). Introduction: Internet freedom in Morocco remained tenuous over the past year due to a crackdown on online journalists and activists who had covered protests, trained reporters, and voiced dissent online. Unlike traditional news outlets, social media platforms were filled with debate on the outbreak of protests in al-Hoceima, a coastal town located in the marginalized Rif region. The protests erupted after video footage circulated online in October 2016 of fish vendor Mouhcine Fikri being crushed in a trash compactor while trying to recover his confiscated goods. Known as al-Hirak Rif (the Rif Movement), the protests spread to other cities until June 2017, with demonstrators denouncing chronic neglect and harassment by the state and ruling elites. -

National and economic developments receive good coverage; EU reportage is less nuanced and informed about local and less mainstream mass media such as radio. It is particularly unskilled at assessing Islamic media popularity, influences and impacts, including both locally produced and regionally produced programming. -

There had yet to be a punk rock band there until the mid-2000s. In the following paper, I detail the rise of heavy metal in Morocco. Beginning with the early metal scene, I trace through critical moments in its growth, building up to the origins of the Moroccan punk scene and the state of those subcultures in recent years. -

Copyright Media, Culture & Society Writing between the “red lines”: Morocco’s digital media landscape Journal: Media Culture and Society Manuscript ID Draft Manuscript Type:MCSMain Article for Review Censorship, digital press, field, journalism, Maghreb, media freedom, Keyword: Morocco, political economy This paper present an overview of the emergence of online news sites, which has radically altered news provision and media consumption patterns in Morocco. This sector has rapidly become a strategic site. Firstly, its precedence over print media and national television networks does not only stem from the high traffic figures of news websites. Along with certain social platforms, these websites are the only place for 24/7 news in a country which currently has just one such news channel and where, in spite of the “liberalization” of media, national networks provide very institutionalised news programs.
