Amazigh Constitutionalization in Morocco: Stakes and Strategies
The Amazigh is recognized as an official language, alongside Arabic, in the Constitution adopted on July 1st, 2011. This is a historical event unprecedented in Morocco and in the countries where the Amazigh is a national language. This recognition opens up considerable prospects towards the revitalization of the Amazigh and impulse decisively the process of institutionalization of the language and the culture. Thus, new stakes and challenges are getting more and more visible on Moroccan political scene. Indeed, the positive management of these stakes and challenges requires new strategies at the level of the central State and at the level of regional institutions as well.
