Social Currents in North Africa presents a multi-disciplinary analysis of social phenomena unfolding in the Maghreb today. It explores some of the most salient institutional and cultural parameters at work, through topics ranging from the workings of religious belief in the public sphere to the moral economies of language instruction and cultural production. Abi- Mershed delivers critical comments on the genealogies of contemporary North African behavioural and ideological norms, and offers insights into the new rationalities of governance after 2011. This volume raises important conceptual interpretations for the field of North Africa studies.

'Osama Abi-Mershed has pulled together a comprehensive and insightful edited volume that covers several important aspects of Maghrebi political and social currents. Ranging across several countries and topics, but with a focus on social currents in the region, this volume is testimony to the emergence of a new, younger generation of North Africa scholars that promise to provide new and continuing insights into a region of the world that is not usually the subject of sustained inquiries.'
