Moroccan political system: Literature Review
This literature review, prepared by Lalla Amina Drhimeur, covers momentous events such as uprisings and protests which have taken place since 2011. These are complemented by an analysis of the constitutional reforms and the characteristics of the Moroccan regime which have been debated in the recent decade. Importantly, this work provides insight into the rise of Morocco’s Justice and Development Party (PJD), an Islamist conservative democrat party, which was first known as a proponent of political reform, which later became an avid supporter of the Moroccan monarchy.
This literature review was prepared in the scope of the ongoing EU-funded research for the “Prime YOUTH” project conducted under the supervision of the Principle Investigator, Prof. Dr. Ayhan Kaya, and funded by the European Research Council with the Agreement Number 785934.
