Origins of the Spanish colonial project in Morocco
From November 12, 2010 until December 09, 2010
Casa Árabe hosts the conference From Algeciras to Tetuan. Origins of the Spanish colonialist project in the north of Morocco in Madrid on Thursday December 9th, which review the Moroccan history up to the Spanish Protectorate.
Professor Youssef Akmir, from the Ibn Zohr University in Agadir (Morocco), with the Spanish historian María Rosa de Madariaga and Francisco Javier Martínez Antonio, will deal with the period previous to the Spanish Protectorate in 1912, a period the Moroccan historiography has almost left untouched.
Based on Moroccan sources, the speaker will go through the country's sociopolitical structures and the interest that it arises abroad, the political situation in Morocco and in Spain at the end of the 19th Century and the Algecira's Conference in 1906.
The conference will take place at 19.30h at the Casa Árabe's Auditorium in Madrid (c/ Alcalá, 62). Free entrance.
