Political participation in the experience of the youth of the 20th February Movement Morocco

Abstract

This paper explores the individual transformation of a group of young activists from the Moroccan February 20 Movement through their involvement in protest. The paper focuses on different development milestones in each individual path, by identifying the personal experiences of the activists and analysing their interactions with the national and regional environment. Based on an anthropological approach, the paper addresses the idea of political subjectification as a concept aimed at absorbing and investigating the forms and stages in which the interlocutors decided to engage in "action". It also focuses on the course of producing their own transformations, which helped them understand new representations of their surroundings.
