Acknowledgement
I would like to thank Dr Carli Coetzee for all her help, guidance, and feedback on this special issue. I am also grateful to the anonymous reviewers for their insightful comments on the articles.
Notes
The movement was given the name 20 February as that was the date (in 2011) set by the young people in various social media outlets for their ‘day of rage’ or first massive pro-democracy demonstration in Morocco.
See Amine and Carlson (2011) and Orlando (2009, 2011).
