Although Morocco has not undergone a revolution like those in Tunisia and Egypt in 2011, demonstrators have kept up public pressure on the authorities to reform. The response has been a series of limited concessions, including a constitutional review that will publish its findings in June 2011. This is the opportunity for the European Union and its member states to ensure that real progress is made towards reform – change that will not only benefit the people of Morocco, but the EU as well. In 'A chance to reform: how the EU can support evolution in Morocco', based upon a 2011 ECFR research trip to the country, Susi Dennison, Nicu Popescu and José Ignacio Torreblanca argue that the EU has the influence and opportunity to bring about a stable and genuinely democratic Morocco. |
