Abstract

The Challenge of Morocco

Landau, Rom | June 14, 1952 issue

add to cart   close window

Much of the Preach record in Morocco is highly estimable: a medieval land, on the verge of disruption, has become peaceful, prosperous, and comparatively modern. But the Moroccans' share in the prosperity has been only incidental, for the chief aim of French reforms has been to transform Morocco into an adjunct to the economy of France and to provide French emigres with jobs or sources of enrichment. In view of the Protectorate's political record it is hardly surprising that nationalism should have become the second religion of the Moroccan people.
