Il libro

Seven years have passed since the explosion of the so-called “Arab Springs”. It has been a heterogeneous phenomenon that spread from Tunisia to other Maghreb and Middle East countries characterized by decades of political tensions. The contributions collected in this volume try to retrace the unfolding of social movements that followed different paths, producing different outcomes. They are movements that, among thousands of contradictions, continue to affect both sides of the Mediterranean. The book is organized along two different perspectives. On the one hand, starting from the conditions in which the revolutions developed in certain territories (Morocco, Tunisia, Egypt), it tries to detect their consequences. On the other hand, following a wave that has spread well beyond the territories directly involved, it addresses the second generations of Arab citizens in the banlieues of contemporary France. The Arab revolutions of 2011, and the great migrations that followed, opened a post-revolutionary period we are destined to be confronted with for a long time.
