Abstract:
This work seeks to portray the reality of the “Maghribi woman” (the Maghrib of Morocco, Algeria, and Tunisia) using a gender-studies approach. It therefore has both the advantages and disadvantages of such an approach: its multidisciplinarity allows each contribution to enrich the others by analyzing women in turn through their legal status and economic and political role. At the same time, however, this exclusive focus on women at times overlooks important aspects of women's social relations with their broader environment.

Abstract:
In the context of a public mental health study conducted in Casablanca, the economic capital of Morocco, we encountered a serious challenge regarding the availability of consistent and accurate administrative division data. Hence, using the Google Maps API in QGIS, we proceeded to geocode the Grand Casablanca districts and overlay them on the updated Morocco’s administrative regions shapefile. The district data were summarized and gathered creating an administrative division repository from the district level up. Thus, the main contribution of the current paper, is a table containing (District, District_CP, Commune, Type_com, Prefecture/Province (PR), PR_CP, Region) and the second output is the shapefile that generated the table. The GIS data and the map are useful to other researchers in Morocco and elsewhere who have had no opportunity to access administrative division data of the location. As for foreign researchers from other developing countries the paper’s approach can be applied in their studies to create other lacking geographic repositories.

<p><strong>Abstract.</strong> The aim of this research is to study the relationship between transportation and poverty. Indeed, the non-existence, lack or weakness of the supply of transport, poor accessibility to the means of transport and thus also to the zones of economic activity for the population can possibly make their economic and social situations more precarious.</p><p>As for a study area we chose the city of Errahma at Dar Bouazza Commune as a peripheral areas of Casablanca on which we analyze accessibility to the zones of economic activity in the Casablanca region through Geographical Information Systems (GIS).</p><p> To complete our analysis, we conducted a survey of 100 households in the peripheral city. This survey aims to study the difficulty of these households to access economic activity areas as well as the high general cost to pay for their trips.</p><p> Our field study confirmed the results obtained by the GIS and shows that choosing to live in a peripheral zone like Errahma can make families poorer because of, among other things, the lack of accessibility to public transport and therefore the lack of accessibility to areas of economic activity.</p>

Abstract:
With the rapid rate of population growth and economic development, cities face enormous challenges that require both optimal and integrated solutions to meet the needs of growth and to protect the environment and sustainable development. These urban dynamics, which change over time, extend not only horizontally and upward, but also downward. Thus, underground space has been utilized increasingly to relieve the urban surface and to ensure the exploitation of underground resources. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the possibilities of using this space in Casablanca as part of urban land-use planning and, consequently, to suggest an integrated model of exploitation of this space that is adapted to the specificities of the study area. Thus, an analysis of the use of underground spaces in a set of European cities has been performed. The study of the characteristics of this space in Casablanca has been realized according to the levels of geology and hydrogeology and two underground infrastructure projects. This work has led to the implementation of a prototype model named “Sub-Urban Information Modeling”. The model’s objective is to gather all the data and knowledge related to the relevant underground space in an integrated platform that can be shared and updated in order to facilitate the understanding of this environment and its interaction with the surface and to ensure the rational and efficient use of its resources.

Abstract:
Casablanca is the largest metropolis in Morocco and the Maghreb and one of the largest cities in Africa. However, like most cities in developing countries, it faces major problems in terms of planning and transport. The problems in transport are of different types and affect all areas of the city, especially the peripheral areas of Casablanca, which are experiencing significant difficulties in terms of accessibility, knowing that these areas are the most precarious. The aim of this work is to confront on the one hand the global GIS analysis of the transport supply and its relation with the precariousness of the populations, and on the other hand the real problem of access to economic opportunities because of the exorbitant costs of public transport in relation to the income of these peripheral populations, taking into account the case of the peripheral city of Errahma. This second analysis was carried out through a field survey, on the area of the new city of Errahma. Initial analysis of this work has confirmed the existence of a very strong relationship between transport supply, loss of economic opportunity and precariousness in these peripheral areas.

Abstract:
In July 1998, shortened internodes, reduced leaf size, leaf curling, and bushy plants were observed in tomato crops in the coastal region near Casablanca, Morocco. The symptoms were similar to those described for tomato yellow leaf curl virus (TYLCV) disease. During September, the disease was present in more than 130 ha of outdoor and protected crops. Economic losses ranged between 20 and 100%. Similar symptoms were observed in tomato crops in the northeastern region of Morocco. During the same period, high populations of Bemisia tabaci (Gennadius) were observed on tomato, sweet pepper, and several weeds, including Sonchus oleraceus L., Chenopodium sp., Malva parviflora L., and Datura stramonium L. Attempts to control whiteflies with insecticides generally were unsuccessful. Using a pair of degenerate primers (3) that are expected to amplify a region of the A component of begomoviruses between the intergenic conserved nonanucleotide sequence and the first 5′ quarter of the capsid protein gene, an expected size product of 500 bp was obtained from six tomato leaf samples collected near Casablanca: four were obtained from symptomatic plants and two from apparently symptomless plants. A product of the same size was obtained from a sample of tomato infected with a TYLCV isolate from Reunion Island, France (2), but not from a sample from symptomless tomato plants from Reunion. The polymerase chain reaction (PCR) product obtained from one symptomatic sample from Morocco was cloned and sequenced (2). The resulting sequence (EMBL no. AJ133491) was at least 95.2% identical to sequences of TYLCV isolates from the Dominican Republic (EMBL no. AF024715), Cuba (EMBL no. AJ223505), Israel (EMBL no. X15656; EMBL no. X76319 for the mild clone), Spain (EMBL no. AF071228), and Reunion (EMBL no. AJ010790). Based on sequence comparisons, the tomato leaf sample was infected by a geminivirus isolate belonging to the Israeli species of TYLCV and was most closely related to the Dominican Republic isolate (98.4% nucleotide identity). In symptomless plants from which a 500-bp PCR product was obtained, infection may have been in an early stage. This is consistent with the fact that in the 2-ha field from which tomato samples were collected, only 4% of the plants exhibited TYLCV symptoms at the time of collection, whereas at least 70% of plants showed symptoms later, requiring the farmer to abandon the crop. The presence of the Eastern Mediterranean TYLCV species in a Western Mediterranean country is not a new observation; this virus has been described in Spain and Portugal (1). In Morocco, TYLCV symptoms were observed during the 1996 to 1997 growing season, following importation of grafted tomato plants from the Netherlands, by a farmer from the Casablanca region.

Abstract:
AbstractTo deal with the growing migrant crisis in North Africa, several states have considered granting amnesty to foreign displaced persons (both economic migrants and potential refugees) who have entered their territories clandestinely. Morocco has taken the lead in this policy approach, launching two successful amnesty campaigns in 2014 and 2017 that regularized the status of approximately 40,000 displaced persons in total. While policymakers in many North African states increasingly see this policy as a viable solution, it is less understood how ordinary citizens view such regularization policies. Hence, this article inquires: under what conditions do ordinary native citizens support regularizing clandestine migrants and refugees? Further, what factors correlate with either higher or lower levels of public support for (or opposition to) regularization campaigns? Drawing on an original representative public opinion poll from Morocco's Casablanca-Settat region completed in 2017, this article finds that more than 59 percent of native citizens of Morocco support these regularization campaigns. Particularly, Moroccans who were wealthier, female, and ethnic minorities (black Moroccans) endorsed regularization more strongly. By contrast, Moroccans opposed regularization when they had concerns about whether displaced persons hurt the economy, undermine cultural traditions, and reduce stability.

Abstract:
Abstract This article highlights the need to rethink how to manage mobility in Morocco more intelligently, given that it is a major pillar of economic competitiveness. Smart mobility based on Intelligent Transport Systems (ITS) allows to improve and ensure the optimal use of existing infrastructure before embarking on heavy and irreversible infrastructure projects. The case regarding the separation of the urban traffic and the Heavy Goods Vehicles (HGV) traffic circulating between Casablanca Port and Zenata Dry Port is a relevant example where smart mobility could provide efficient solutions without building costly tunnels. A dynamic simulation was made using the Aimsun software to quantify the relevance of the proposed lane designated to HGV in the existing road. This simulation allows to visualise congestion sections and quantify the circulation of vehicles and pedestrians. The article presents defined functions and characteristics of the Advanced Traffic Management (ATM) to ensure the optimal operation and efficient setting of the simulation. All appliances, hardware, and sensors that will be set up on-site will help to improve traffic safety, traffic flow, traffic information, and reduce congestion and pollution. This case study illustrates the complexity of managing the flow of goods in cities and suggests how to solve this type of problems using smart mobility. This research proposes reserving a special lane for HGV. ITS will help this cost-optimal alternative, will promote the urban framework of the coastal road, and contribute to sustainable mobility in Casablanca.

Abstract:
This dissertation examines the representations of Casablanca in Moroccan cinema and their articulation of postcolonial subjectivity since the 1990s. To overcome a deep economic recession and simmering social unrest in the early 1980s, Morocco embarked on a comprehensive programme of structural adjustment policies under the aegis of the International Monetary Fund. Market reforms ushered in novel forms of spatial development and social relations in Moroccan cities over the next decades. In the cultural field, a popular cinema emerged in the early 1990s and has projected the complex structures of everyday life in urban space. The New Urban Cinema (NUC) has anchored national cinema in the everyday life and affective economy of a society in transition. The country’s largest city, Casablanca, is the setting for some of NUC’s most original portrayals of the Moroccan subject under globalisation. Taking space, affect and violence as intertwined sites of film analysis, my research project closely examines the new forms of postcolonial subjectivity that have evolved in Morocco through this cinema. Twenty films are read against the backdrop of neoliberal Casablanca and the social, economic as well as political transformation of Morocco and the world under globalisation. The dissertation combines close textual analysis with a cultural studies perspective, which situates films in their historical contexts of production and reception in Morocco and beyond. Drawing on postcolonial, film and urban studies, my aim is to contribute to interdisciplinary scholarship on cinematic responses to neoliberal globalisation, and to a social history of contemporary Morocco.

Abstract:
This chapter deals with the elaboration of a conceptual framework for agricultural cooperatives in Morocco: sustainable development of rural territories. The farming cooperative associations form an effective means for the advancement of the agricultural sector, being one of the elements of agricultural policy, which play an important role in the development of agricultural production, both plant and animal, as well as in the development process in Morocco, especially for rural development, and through it, rural income of the farmers and their social statuses. In this chapter, the authors have taken the Moroccan agriculture cooperatives as a case of cooperative longevity and survival in order to observe the evolution and processes of adaptation to the distinct economic, social, and environmental demands of a broad range of member-owners. The demands of the farming community, members, and society have resulted in social and environmental factors being as much a priority as economic aspects.

Abstract:
This case study looks at a much overlooked and ignored filmmaker from Morocco, Izza Génini: the first woman to be truly dedicated to making documentaries in a country where documentaries were actively discouraged. Morocco’s political, economic, cultural and social devastation during the Years of Lead in the eighties determined censorship and prevented any sort of filmmaking for a long time. People were disappeared or killed by government spies, and production was at an all time low. It was moreover determined by an exceptionally strict censorship board. Nevertheless, as producer and director, since the eighties Génini has managed to make pertinent observations of celebratory aspects of her mixed culture. Her family is Jewish, and it is a hidden aspect of Moroccan society that a large contingency of Jewish people used to live peacefully side by side with the Moroccan Arabs. Through depictions of traditional music and dance, celebrating hidden customs, her films defy national timidity and homogeneity. She was the first woman to make documentaries in Morocco that were not sponsored by the state, and remained so until well into the nineties.
