Identities under control. Structured ignorance

By Soumya El Harmassi

This reflection is based on the desire to deconstruct what we will call the imperialism of the educational institution in Morocco, which is based on a combination of 'identity' and 'sovereignty' imperatives and so-called principles of openness. The former set the ethical and political framework, and have been resolutely and progressively aligned, from independence to the present day, with the normative discourse of religious morality and social constraints. The latter are distilled by French interference, which persists because of the economic hegemony of its language. The policies of the Francophonie carried out by the educational cooperation services of the French Embassy are strongly involved in the pedagogical orientations, at all school and university levels. They defend, in a very official way, what we will call a transnational neoliberal populism whose effects on all the educational systems of the formerly colonised countries are catastrophic.
