Individual freedoms and mechanisms of political and institutional legitimation in Morocco

Individual freedoms pose a real challenge in the process of Morocco’s national and international legitimation. On a legal level, they are the object of widely varying constitutional reforms. In addition, they raise concerns because of the fragile balance on a domestic stage where the religious legitimacy of the king faces competition from conservative political trends, but also in relation to a straitjacketing international environment. Between the constitutions of 1992, which recognises the universality of human rights, and 2011, which enshrines individual freedoms, this legal dynamic is struggling to be reflected in legislation, an indication of both political caution and law update.
Key words: Morocco, Constitution, political legitimation, individual freedoms
