The texts and topics we will address include language, history, economics, literature, religion, arts, politics, and gender issues. We will take into account the heterogeneity of Moroccan society, and keep in mind the country s connection to its broader geographical context. We will aim at viewing Morocco from both a local and regional standpoints while simultaneously relating it to your own perspectives. This comparative approach will serve to identify the dynamics of Moroccan culture s major patterns and what drives the behavior, attitudes, values and judgments of Moroccans. Learning Objectives By the end of the course, the students will have developed the ability: - To understand the factors contributing to shaping a Moroccan identity; - To discuss major issues of contemporary Moroccan society, culture and history; - To identify the various aspects of transformation of Morocco since independence. Course Prerequisites There are no perquisites for this course.
2 Methods of Instruction The class will be conducted in the form of a seminar. Lectures will provide background and set discussion frameworks. Student participation will form the backbone of the class. As such, students will be expected to prepare alone or with another student a brief (20 min) lecture on one of the secondary readings. Opportunities are listed along with the class topic. A set of field trips and visits to museums, historical sites and social and political organizations is programmed by CIEE, and are CRUCIAL to understanding the issues covered in the syllabus. Assessment and Final Grade 1. Reaction Papers 25% (each 12.5%) 2. Presentations on Secondary Readings 20% 3. Final Research Paper 25% 4. Attendance and Class Participation 30% Course Requirements 1. Reaction Papers Each student will write a 1-2 page reaction paper on two experiences in Morocco that are an important part of many Moroccan s ordinary lives. The first will be an anthropological analysis of riding the tram lines. The second will be to compare café/restaurants in Place Moulay Hassan (Place Pietri) and the Medina. The first will be due at the end of the 4 th full week of class. The second will be due at the end of the 8 th week of class. 2. Presentations on Secondary Readings For one, and possibly more, readings per week, you will have an opportunity to introduce the material to your classmates. Outlining the material; giving pertinent context of the author and the story; and relating the material to class so far will earn full credit. 3. Final Research Paper Details to be decided by class on first day. 4. Attendance and Class Participation Credit is awarded on the basis of regular, active participation and attendance in class discussion and activities. You must read the assigned material in advance to actively participate in class discussion.
