The Representation of the Village in the Berber Identity
Amrouche, Nassim
The Representation of the Village in the Berber Identity - 2013.
97
The Berber Arouch Citizen’s Movement in 2001 took place in the continuity of the Berber Spring of April 1980 through a sociopolitical organization referring to the local tribal context. The Berber identity—linguistic and cultural claims—generates a poetic of “culture” in which the imagined village plays a significant part in a mainly urban activism. Through the reconstruction of rural and mountainous spaces, the activists envisage a past that is idealized in its cultural purity and mobilized as a tool for a contemporary opposition.
