- W830242009 abstract "Susan Gilson-Miller. 2013. A History of Modern Morocco. Cambridge: Cambridge University Press. 306 pp. A Modern History of Morocco, Susan Gilson-Millers' latest book, is a most informative, convincingly wrought, well-documented and up-to-date general history of Morocco extant in English. covers two centuries of the country's history, thus offering a new masterfully conceived approach to both the periodization and the thematization of the history of Morocco. author's methodology and her investigation of primary and secondary sources in and other languages make A Modern History of Morocco a thoroughly researched oeuvre that not only reconstructs a history but also provides a panoply of sources which will be extremely useful to the historians of the Maghreb. A Modern History of Morocco is divided into an introduction and nine sections covering the period between 1830 and 2011. Each section deals with a specific theme within a clearly periodized time frame. first two sections, titled The Closing Era of Jihad (1830-1860) and Facing the Challenges of Reform (1860-1894), expound the multiple challenges faced by a weakened Morocco in its relationship with an industrialized Europe whose expansionist policies were becoming more aggressive. Furthermore, Morocco's endeavor to implement reforms and its failure to stave off this increasing European hegemony is cogently argued based on Arabic chronicles, which form the substance of the early chapters of the book (p. 6). rest of the chapters, The Passing of the Old Makhzan (1894-1912), France and Spain in Morocco: Early Years of the Protectorates (1912-1930), Framing the Nation (1930-1961), The First Age of Hassan II: Iron First (1961-1975), The Second Age of Hassan II: Velvet Glove (1975-1999), Summation: In Search of New Equilibrium, and finally a Postscript: Long Decade of Muhammad VI: (2000-2011), are divided into sub-themes dealing with specific topics relevant to the theme of the chapter. Gilson-Miller provides an innovative reading of Moroccan history. Two salient qualities of A Modern History of Morocco are its positive reading of the stories of outlaws in Moroccan history and its long exposition on state violence in the country. She inscribes the Rogui and al-Raysuni's stories within a general atmosphere of revolt against the sultans and the makhzan. Thus the widely mischaracterized role of these figures in opposing the hegemony of the political center is unsilenced. Consequently, these outcast elements are refigured as agents of change who represent a new strain in political life that redefined how opposition to the state could be expressed (p. …" @default.
