“Berbers of Morocco are not residents of the ancients, it was them extinct folks do not know much about it.” This statement issued by the researcher Anthropology Professor Abdullah Hamoudi in the context of the offer made recently by the Faculty of Arts and Humanities, Ben Msik Casablanca, at the same meeting, the researcher spoke great apprehension for the Amazigh and her Alhoiati.
This statement seems at first glance normal as long as it comes to a question of time Almghaz open Krnologith, and the difficulty of decisiveness in the first and oldest that despite that each subsequent earlier, it is possible that the former is earlier, so and on until we get to the dinosaurs that are, if not in it doubt, The original static Lgel world spots! But is this approach will benefit the researcher Anthropology, and cultured engaged in community issues and development of democratic and human rights, in something? I think not.
The question posed by the content of the intervention Abdullah Hamoudi, both with regard to Ptogesh exaggerated and intimidating unjustified of Amazigh and her Alhoiati or through the exit from the framework and empowered approach anthropological and cultural topic of the meeting centered is the identity in Morocco discussion, and delve into the subject of indigenous people, who belongs to the field Investigation of historical debate or excavations and research archeology, the question posed by this substance and say what is the scientific Sindh and why a private get off it by the researcher large Ontrbulogi and engaged in the political and cultural debate in Morocco issues, and the shareholder is not just through Tamoqah across views and performances and positions within theses and sensitivities and stampedes known political space and the debate about identity and language, democracy and change issues?
If this new historical recognition of the discoveries of Mr. Abdullah Hamoudi and his group at Princeton University, came upon him to provide the scientific framework for this work and the details of the discovery, upping that enough of the bonds and evidence-based access to even the researchers and the general observers and citizens be aware of this historic recognition the new. If it is just an opinion, even if based on a preliminary or partial study or collection and conclusion or personal information to know, what was the big Anthropology to take his mind all these reliability and decisiveness in the forms and question my knowledge of a political and cultural sensitivity in Moroccan society, especially as it has been in some In the intervention, fleeting minutes and not in the written text of the study or publication can return to the building and contents of the systematic and detailed bibliographic framework to understand the documents and arguments of this new recognition.
As this debate has already accumulated many of the ideas and knowledge bonds that are difficult refuted, some of which have dealt with in detail in my book “Amazigh, Morocco wasted,” It is enough to recall some of them.
As written Mohammed Shafiq, “It is absurd to looking Berber for authentic citizen is that nearly one hundred century grew up in. It is a cost that research requires the same be applied to seek authentic citizen of the Chinese, for example, or the Indians India and Sindh, or the ancient Egyptians, or Amanyen for themselves and for all Arabs, to know where they come from the Arabian Peninsula. ”
This is one of the oldest historical texts, which is Herodotus, and return to the 5 century BC, says: “Long live Libya -otni in ancient historical writing the country’s Amazigh any North Africa- four races Osalian two of them and two other immigrants, either understanding or her own parents Libyans (ie Amazigh eggs skin) and Ethiopians (ie Amazigh with features of the Negro), The Emigrants understanding of the Phoenicians and the Greeks. ”
The question of “indigenous” is often in the mind of absolute seniority any absolute in time, and particularly sensitive through historical legitimacy and social precedence geographical affiliation questions related to any of belonging to the land and its associated legitimacy to exist and the system of rights, and raised it from the possession, use and wealth and power, sovereignty and bilateral issues authentic and intruder … to other implications of this debate, which is often articulated ideological and political sensitivity, even under the cover of a scientific or academic.
Valomazag as indigenous people and ingrained, they were able to resist extinction, and stand a chance and keep their historical presence, and their language and culture, and contribute strongly in the most important political events known to North Africa over the tens of centuries, even though they were exposed to the most violent forms of invasion by the empires of the major countries since the Romans, Vandals, Byzantines, Arabs and up to the French and Spanish, and they were in the contemporary period goals for policies accommodating large arsenals Tzuibih ideological and institutional capabilities dominant countries and political systems. Fjba how he was able to stand a chance Amazigh history along the northern coast of Africa, and to this day, and their language and their culture, and their presence and Mojodhm, as a people, the neighborhood did not become extinct, and we know him a lot!
Never be the primacy of the original sense of belonging or chronological and historical, not the entrance not only document the existence of the people and the legitimacy of social identity, languages and cultures, and to self-determination or the realization of their rights and fairness. Social Being present, the here and now, with all the ingredients of human, cultural, economic and manifestations, is the basis of the communities and the legitimacy of states and out policies, but the actual purpose of the measures of democratic nations, and in the struggles of liberation, social and corrective movements, even in the bidding adult researchers and Liberal intellectuals path.
The remaining question is how to interpret the fight a large and active Ontrbulogi opinion such as Abdullah Hamoudi in question Aboriginal and amplify the fear of discourse Amazigh at this point and time in particular, which is supposed and expected to be resolved when many political choices and institutional measures of interest to Morocco’s future and Omazegeth?
According to a scientific and Trace humble search and cash since the nearly twenty years for the different sensitivities and writings, statements and opinions which are traded on the identity and culture, democracy and tyranny and reconciliation … in Morocco issues, both in the academic and scientific, cultural, legal and policy frameworks, has never been through Mr. Abdullah Hamoudi explicit formula for a democratic and Positive Amazigh position as the reality of anthropology shining, and a presence socially, linguistically and culturally, Hoiatia, suffered from various forms of distortion and absorption of ideological and cultural and political hegemony, and the affair jurist fair, though he fought a lot during the recent years in the issues of democracy and political tyranny and criticism of the regime and support the movement for change .
And Asthoudara to the legality of the requirement Amazigh, and he falls in the heart of democracy and reconciliation issues, cultural and political change hopefully in Morocco, it is the qualities of the great intellectuals not to be tolerated in the moments important in the course of the development of his community and his country change, but not to talk at the moment moiety in order to discredit and provoke discussions fleeting, but the attendees actual and bold, and honestly thought, say, in order to contribute to the democratic path of fairness and human rights and building a complete and comprehensive, without selectivity or apprehension. So we want to Abdullah Hamoudi, not the reverse, it is not completely reversed!]]>
