No full textThe Maghreb states : regional and foreign policies 1973-1987
No full textBy 1973, the period of uncertainty that followed
independence in the Maghreb was over, and the regimes in place -
whether civilian or military were there to remain. Legitimising
formulas were no longer rested on the ideological rhetoric that had
been derived from the euphoria of independence, and by now the
Maghrebi elites had to seek other legitimising sources. Thus they
embarked on consolidating the state through institutionalisation and
through new policies that sought to associate key constituencies with
the conduct of the government. The intense social transformation
over the last two decades, with greater access to education, has been
coupled with the new emphasis on the state. Ideology has retreated
before the advance of pragmatism and a greater awareness of the
developments both at home and abroad. Accordingly, our work suggests
that foreign policies of the Maghreb States, in the period under study
have been executed in accordance with, and in response to, the
exigencies of 'national interest'.
The thesis is divided into five parts:
The First Part, discusses different theories of foreign policy-making
and sets out our suggested framework for analysis;
The Second Part, deals with the conflicting and competitive nature
that commands Inter-Maghrebin relations. The strife and rivalry for
leadership and supremacy in North Africa has been a crucial factor
dictating Maghrebi policies in Africa, the Middle East, Europe and
beyond;
The Third Part, treats Maghrebi relations with the Arab World and
their attitudes with regard to issues ranging from the Arab Israeli
conflict to the Iran-Iraq War, while competing for support and allies
in their inter-Maghrebin altercations;
Part Four, is concerned with the Maghrebi African policies. While the
continent became a battle ground for the struggle against Isreal, it
has also become a forum that for long has been dominated by
inter-Maghrebin rivalries;
Finally, the Fifth Part, deals with the Maghrebi foreign policies with
regard to Europe and the super powers. As in the case of their
relations with the Middle East and Africa, relations with Europe and
the super powers have also been conflicting and competitive as far as
the Maghreb states are concerned. Here, however, Maghrebi pragmatic
approach has prevailed through the divorce of the foreign policy
utterances from economic practices
