Amazigh Identity: From Discrimination to Reconciliation—A Struggle for Recognition
Abstract
This paper analyzes the conditions that fostered the emergence of a renewed identity perspective grounded in Amazigh linguistic and cultural rights. It traces the trajectory from denial to recognition after decades of advocacy, across institutional, political, public‑policy, and legal arenas. The article also argues that further guarantees and implementation measures remain necessary to secure the effective enjoyment of Morocco’s linguistic and cultural pluralism and to consolidate a durable process of reconciliation and recognition.
