Recenzii
'Employing evidence from maps and archaeological reports to dialects and notions of nationalism, Hannoum provides an insightful analysis of how the different lands and peoples of north Africa became 'the Maghreb' - how the name and the concept emerged from a complex of modern colonial, racial, and knowledge constructs. Brent Shaw, Princeton University
'Colonial modernity, or the European project to civilize the rest of the world, deploys knowledge, force, and power to control violently but also to create. For countries geopolitically constituted as neither African nor Middle Eastern - Morocco, Algeria, Tunisia - anthropologist Abdelmajid Hannoum skillfully unpacks France's discourses and institutions implicated in the creation of the Maghreb. He brings the region into superb focus through French maps and artifacts used to appropriate precolonial texts, construct colonial perceptions, and set enduring terms for postcolonial knowledge.' Susan Slyomovics, University of California, Los Angeles
