Publisher's Synopsis
Political Women in Morocco is a collection of biographies of 34 political women. It demonstrates that Moroccan women have participated actively in the political sphere for centuries. From queens and regents, to political mediators, to warriors, to ambassadors, to those who created beautiful works of art, fought colonial powers and initiated new public infrastructure projects. This text finally provides a feminist approach to history, deconstructing dominant methods which masculinise history and politics.
