Colonial and Orientalist Veils Colonial and Orientalist Veils: Associations of Islamic Female Dress in the French and Moroccan Press and Politics Loubna Bijdiguen Goldmiths College – University of London Thesis Submitted for a PhD in Media and Communications Abstract The veiled Muslimah or Muslim woman has figured as a threat in media during the past few years, especially with the increasing visibility of religious practices in both Muslim-majority and Muslim-minority contexts. Islamic dress has further become a means and technique of constructing ideas about the ‘other’. My study explores how the veil comes to embody this otherness in the contemporary print media and politics. It is an attempt to question constructions of the veil by showing how they repeat older colonial and Orientalist histories. I compare and contrast representations of the dress in Morocco and France. This research is about how Muslimat, and more particularly their Islamic attire, is portrayed in the contemporary print media and politics. My research aims to explore constructions of the dress in the contemporary Moroccan and French press and politics, and how the veil comes to acquire meanings, or veil associations, over time. I consider the veil in Orientalist, postcolonial, Muslim and Islamic feminist contexts, and constructions of the veil in Orientalist and Arab Nahda texts. I also examine Islamic dress in contemporary Moroccan and French print media and politics. While I focus on similarities and continuities, I also highlight differences in constructions of the veil. My study establishes the importance of merging and comparing histories, social contexts and geographies, and offers an opportunity to read the veil from a multivocal, multilingual, cross-historical perspective, in order to reconsider discourses of Islamic dress past and present in comparative perspective. 2 of 347 Table of Contents Introduction ................................................................................................................................... 6 A Personal Story .................................................................................................................... 8 Socio-Historical Background: France and Maghrebi Colonialism ..................................... 15 Morocco and the Nahda or Arab Awakening Movement ..................................................... 20 The Veil within Orientalism, Postcolonial, Islamic and Muslim Feminism ........................... 29 Orientalism as Discourse ..................................................................................................... 30 Orientalism as a System of Representation .......................................................................... 34 Constructions of Islam and the Veil ..................................................................................... 37 The Veil and Feminism......................................................................................................... 39 Harem Veils ......................................................................................................................... 44 Islamic, Muslim Feminism and the Veil ............................................................................... 48 Approaching the Veil: a Veil Methodology .............................................................................. 57 The Politics of Location ....................................................................................................... 57 The Veil Archive ................................................................................................................... 69 Approaching Texts ............................................................................................................... 78 Translation ........................................................................................................................... 81 Orientalist Veils........................................................................................................................... 91 Unhappy Veils: ‘Miserable Conditions’ ‘Melancholic Expressions’ ................................... 92 Oppressive Veils: ‘Enslaving Harems’ and ‘Prison Hoods’ ................................................ 99 Exotic Veils: ‘Coquettish Nuns’, ‘Frail’ and ‘Muslin Veils’ .............................................. 107 3 of 347 Nahda Veils ................................................................................................................................ 116 Unhappy Veils: Law, Order, Justice and Hijabs of Hardships .......................................... 118 ‘Veiled in her house, Veil on her face’ ‘Prison of the hijab’.............................................. 124 Seductive Attractive Veils: Thin, Transparent Burqu’s and Revealing Mu’zars ................ 133 ‘Veiled in her Ignorance and Backwardness’ and ‘bonds of ignorance and the veil’ ....... 138 Veil and Dark Times: ‘Darkness of the veil’ or ‘Enlightened Guardians’ ......................... 145 French Veils ............................................................................................................................... 152 Political Threats to the French Nation .............................................................................. 155 6.1.1.

How did I as a Muslimah muhajjaba (or Muslim woman with a hijab) come to research Islamic dress (referred to as libas islami’ in Arabic) in France and Morocco whilst studying in England? The veil was not the original point of departure in my research. My original study was concerned with colonial discourse and Orientalism; I wanted to explore the techniques for generating ideas about ‘the other.’ But it was the figure of the veiled woman in the texts I was reading that captured my interest; I was intrigued by how she kept coming up. The research thus became about how Muslimat, and more particularly their Islamic attire, is portrayed in the contemporary print media. My research thus aims to explore constructions of Islamic female dress in the contemporary French and Moroccan press and politics. I became especially interested in how the veil comes to acquire certain meanings over time (what I call ‘veil associations’). It is worth noting early on that, when I use the term ‘veil’, I do not intend

  • What Isveiling?
    Muslim Women—we just can’t seem to catch a break. We’re oppressed, submissive, and forced into arranged marriages by big- bearded men. Oh, and let’s not forget—we’re also all hiding explosives under our clothes. The truth is—like most women—we’re independent and opinionated. And the only things hiding under our clothes are hearts yearning for love. Everyone seems to have an opinion about Muslim women, even those—especially those—who have never met one. —Ayesha Mattu and Nura Maznavi, introduction to Love Inshallah: The Secret Love Lives of American Muslim Women introduCtion What Is Veiling? Islam did not invent veiling, nor is veiling a practice specific to Muslims. Rather, veiling is a tradition that has existed for thousands of years, both in and far beyond the Middle East, and well before Islam came into being in the early seventh century. Throughout history and around the world, veiling has been a custom associated with “women, men, and sacred places, and objects.”1 Few Muslims and non- Muslims realize that Islam took on veiling practices already in place at the dawn of the seventh century around the Mediterranean Basin. Islam inherited them from the major empires and societies of the time along with many other customs and patriarchal traditions related to the status of women. To understand the meaning of veiling in Islam today, one must recognize the important yet neglected history of veiling practices in the pre-Isla mic period and appreciate the continuities and similarities among cultures and religious traditions. Given that veiling

  • Muslim Women's Pilgrimage to Mecca and Beyond
    Muslim Women’s Pilgrimage to Mecca and Beyond This book investigates female Muslims pilgrimage practices and how these relate to women’s mobility, social relations, identities, and the power struc- tures that shape women’s lives. Bringing together scholars from different disciplines and regional expertise, it offers in-depth investigation of the gendered dimensions of Muslim pilgrimage and the life-worlds of female pilgrims. With a variety of case studies, the contributors explore the expe- riences of female pilgrims to Mecca and other pilgrimage sites, and how these are embedded in historical and current contexts of globalisation and transnational mobility. This volume will be relevant to a broad audience of researchers across pilgrimage, gender, religious, and Islamic studies.

Disclosures Research for this thesis has been completed with the support of: Royce Fellowship, Swearer Center for Public Service, Brown University, 2012-2013 Barbara Anton Internship Grant, Pembroke Center for Teaching and Research on Women, Brown University, 2012-2013 Alice Rowan Swanson Fellowship, SIT Study Abroad, 2012 Acknowledgements I have so much gratitude for the multiple people who have made this project a reality. Carrie Spearin, my advisor, has been patient and understanding. Her pragmatism has enabled me to keep everything in perspective when I felt overwhelmed. Michael Kennedy is my first reader and his own experience of studying a social movement through engaged ethnography has been integral to the way he has guided my research. He has challenged me by asking the right questions at the right time. I have come to appreciate that both Professor Spearin’s and Professor Kennedy’s concern for my safety during this project was driven by their genuine parental instincts. Kerri Heffernan, the director of the Royce Fellowship Program at the Swearer Center for Public Service, has been an invaluable resource for me. She helped me realize that I needed to assemble a team of people at Brown who would believe in me to complete my research in the Netherlands and Morocco.

    CONSEIL D’ADMINISTRATION DU 17 Mars 2021 RAPPORT DU CONSEIL D’ADMINISTRATION SUR LES OPERATIONS DE L’EXERCICE 2020 A L’ASSEMBLEE GENERALE ORDINAIRE ANNUELLE Messieurs les Actionnaires, Nous vous avons réuni en Assemblée Générale Ordinaire Annuelle, conformément à la loi et à l’article 22 des statuts, pour entendre le rapport du Conseil d’Administration et celui des Commissaires aux Comptes sur l’exercice clos le 31 décembre 2020. Avant d’analyser l’activité de la Compagnie, nous voudrions vous rappeler brièvement l’environnement économique international et national dans lequel elle a évolué ainsi que le contexte du secteur des assurances. CONTEXTE A l’international Dans un contexte de crise inédit, l’économie mondiale a connu une sévère récession en 2020 (- 3,7% selon la Banque Mondiale), frappée de plein fouet par la pandémie du COVID-19. Confrontée à une grave crise sanitaire (plus de 28,6 millions de cas au 28/02/2021), l’économie américaine a perdu 3,6% en 2020, la pire récession depuis 1946, affectée par les effets de la pandémie. Après une forte remontée du PIB au 3ème trimestre 2020 (+33,1% en glissement annuel), la reprise s’est affaiblie au 4ème trimestre 2020 suite à la résurgence des infections au Coronavirus et la mise en place de nouvelles restrictions locales. Pour sa part, la croissance en Zone Euro accuse un repli historique de 6,8% en 2020 en raison de l’aggravation de la situation sanitaire et la multiplication des mesures de confinement dans la plupart des grandes économies de la Zone. Le recul le plus marqué est en Espagne (-11%) contre -8,8% pour l’Italie, -8,3% pour la France et -5% pour l’Allemagne.

  • Genealogies of Feminism: Leftist Feminist Subjectivity in the Wake of the Islamic Revival in Contemporary Morocco
    Genealogies of Feminism: Leftist Feminist Subjectivity in the Wake of the Islamic Revival in Contemporary Morocco Nadia Guessous Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY 2011 ©2011 Nadia Guessous All rights reserved ABSTRACT Genealogies of Feminism: Leftist Feminist Subjectivity in the Wake of the Islamic Revival in Contemporary Morocco Nadia Guessous This dissertation is an ethnographic and genealogical study of leftist feminist subjectivity in the wake of the Islamic Revival in contemporary Morocco. It draws on two years (2004-2006) of field research amongst founding members of the Moroccan feminist movement whose activism emerged out of their immersion in and subsequent disenchantment with leftist and Marxist politics in the early 1980s. Based on ethnographic observations and detailed life histories, it explores how Moroccan feminists of this generation came to be constituted as particular kinds of modern leftist subjects who: 1) discursively construct “tradition” as a problem, even while positively invoking it and drawing on its internal resources; 2) posit themselves as “guardians of modernity” despite struggling with modernity’s constitutive contradictions; and 3) are unable to parochialize their own normative assumptions about progress, modernity, freedom, the body, and religion in their encounter with a new generation of women who wear the hijab. How and why a strong commitment to ideas associated with modernity, with women’s rights and with the left is seen as necessitating a condemnation and disavowal of “traditional” and of non-secular ways of being is one of the main themes animating this project.
