p>When the 1912 Treaty of Fes created the French Protectorate of Morocco, the new French administration took charge of a modernization project that included developing a public education system. Avoiding oversight by the Sultan and his government, they instead created separate systems for Arabic-speaking and Berber-speaking Moroccan youth in an effort to artificially separate the population along ethnolinguistic and geographic lines. Whereas much of the existing scholarship on the Protectorate of Morocco focuses on urban Arab nationalism, this dissertation addresses the outcomes of French Berber policy within Berber communities themselves. The lens of education reveals a space of unusually intimate interaction between French functionaries and Berber youth. Based on a Berber myth that placed Berbers higher than Arabs on a European pseudoscientific racial hierarchy, the system of Berber schools was meant to train an intermediary elite class that would serve the French colonial project and turn Berber loyalties from the Sultan to France. Instead, the inequalities and injustices of the imperial order spurred student activism in both Arabic- and Berber-oriented schools, confounding the French educators charged with their instruction and discipline. Drawing on archival and oral sources gathered in Nantes, Aix-en-Provence, and Rabat, this dissertation examines the ideological underpinnings, practical implementation challenges, day-to-day administration, and unintended consequences of the bifurcated public education system implemented by the French in Morocco. I first analyze the rise of ethnography as a colonial science and of ethnographic expertise as both justification of colonialism and a means by which colonial administrators jockeyed for rank and authority. Following the development of a colonial ethnographic archive, I examine the practice of sending French ethnographic researchers with the military in their “Pacification” exercises in southern and eastern Morocco from 1912 until 1934. In addition to rendering Berber country legible to the new centralized administration, this enabled the creation of ad hoc schools that focused on teaching French, which later grew into the Berber school system. An examination of the deliberate creation of separate systems for Arab and Berber youth exposes that the Berber schools were intentionally kept secret from the Sultan and his Makhzen administration, despite French promises of transparency. A narrative history of the Collège Berbère d’Azrou as the keystone of this separate, clandestine educational project reveals that efforts to suppress Arabic language education in the Berber schools had both practical and ideological pitfalls, leading to a backlash that rocked the school in a volatile moment of war and rebellion. Finally, through a case study of Arsène Roux, founder of the Collège, I examine the ambiguous role of a talented and well-intentioned educator and scholar within the exploitative colonial system. By tracing the…p>

p>Thesis M.A.
Michigan State University. History 2013. p><
p>This thesis examines the creation of the spatial identities of Indochina, France, and Hue in Vietnamese print media on travel and mass tourism in early twentieth century. Through the direct experience of travel as well as armchair perceptions via travel stories and ephemera, individuals constructed Indochina, France, and Hue with political, cultural, and gendered meanings. In other words, travel can contribute to the invention of place, shaped through the topophilia or spatial sentiment. Although affective understandings of place can be subjective, this thesis demonstrates how Vietnamese travelers translated their encounters with new places and people through concomitant discourses on modernity, class, nationalism, and urbanism. In this way Indochina, France, and Hue became sites for the expression of new forms of collective identities such as the Vietnamese intelligentsia, middle class, and students.Through an analysis of Vietnamese and French language advertisements, travelogues, and fiction published within Vietnamese print between the 1920s and 1940s, this project seeks to convey the personification of places through both personal experiences and wider socio-cultural debates. Furthermore, as indicated in many textual representations of travel, the process of movement symbolized the catalyst for self-reflection as well as utopic visions for social and political opportunity. Thus, this thesis demonstrates the interrelationship between people and place, such that travelers defined the places of Indochina, France, and Hue, and were also shaped by its rhetoric. p><

p>In this dissertation, I assess the political, social and economic foundation, unfolding and impact the surveillance apparatus traced from Western surveillance blueprints French authorities implemented to monitor the Hajj from colonial Senegal beginning in 1895. I focus mainly on the clash between the Hajj institution and the mechanisms of the colonial
state. I also emphasize the consequences of that encounter in colonial context to shed light on the relationships between public health policies, colonialism and Hajj in order to unlock the dilemmas and strategies French authorities and colonial Senegalese Muslims both involved in "public health diplomacy" faced. This dissertation contributes to the base of knowledge in Islam and the history of the public health of sub-Saharan Africa generally, and of Senegal particularly. It also informs policy makers on the origins of current government regulations that owe a lot more to the colonial past than to modern epidemiology. p><

p>This study used symbolic interactionism as a lens to identify, define and explore the ethnic identity and assimilation experiences of Albanian immigrants and the 1.5 and 2nd generation of ethnic Albanians growing up in the United States. In particular, this research investigated conceptions of white ethnic identity, assimilation, shared culture, and meaning among Albanians who live in
Michigan. The meaning of ethnic identity, the focus of this research, is an important dimension of the experience of assimilation for immigrants and ethnic groups wherein I reexamine the meaning of ethnic distinction and ethnic categories in the everyday lives of one particular White immigrant and ethnic group. As well, there is an exploration of gender and family issues to address some of the common tensions that immigrants and their offspring face in adjusting to US society over time. I collected information from a variety of individuals and settings, using multiple data collection techniques to check my results, also best described as triangulation. I used in-depth interviews, participant observations, one focus group interview, and have designated a "greater-than-usual" weight to insight based on personal experiences (Glaser and Strauss 1968:351). Interviews investigated family relationships, generational tensions, and the construction (and perceptions) of community and identities among Albanians. I focused on asking questions about family relationships and experiences growing up in an Albanian family, probing into the gendered character of these relationships. The second key area I addressed related to race, ethnic and identity by attempting to capture the nature of belonging and membership in the Albanian community, as well as how participants view ethnic and racial identity. The third key aspect of the interview related to their perceptions of and experiences within the Albanian community itself. Participant observations were made at various places. I visited local establishments (e.g., restaurants, stores, coffee shops), attended organized activities (e.g., Albanian Flag Day, weddings, informal gatherings), and any meetings hosted by Albanians. My sample consisted of 25 1.5 and second generation individuals many of which are either born in the US or Albania, a smaller percentage were born in Montenegro, Kosovo or Macedonia, and 10 community leaders for a total of 35 individuals.Findings are framed by one central sociological concern- the ongoing problems of cultural continuity and change. It is common to study white ethnics as if their assimilation is already complete, inevitable, and desirable, which blocks out other possible ways in which to understand the experiences of white ethnic groups in the US. Instead of focusing on whether Albanians assimilate or not and assuming that optional ethnicity means the lack of ethnicity, I uncovered the struggles involved in maintaining and dealing with changes in ethnic meaning and affiliations and found out in what ways one can…p>

p>This study focuses on the migration of East German refugees into West Berlin and West Germany between the establishment of the GDR and FRG in 1949 and the construction of the Berlin Wall in 1961, an influx that, over the course of twelve years, totaled more than three million individuals. While the newcomers were physically indistinguishable and, apart from a few regional differences, shared a common language, culture and religious background with those already residing in West Germany, the presence of these refugees, like that of many other groups of migrants, was still considered a significant danger to the public order — a perception that was deeply rooted in the historical context of migration in Germany. In response to the influx, the Federal Republic and West Berlin established a comprehensive registration process for refugees, which attempted to determine whether refugees had a valid reason for their flight, and set up temporary camps to accommodate those awaiting resettlement in West Germany. Longer-term solutions included the creation of new employment opportunities and the construction of adequate (and permanent) housing in West German cities. However, these efforts required the cooperation of organizations and agencies at several levels of government, and disagreements among the West German Länder, West Berlin, and the Federal Government had a significant impact on the reception process.The ongoing migration of refugees also created new areas of concern, in particular the perceived overcrowding of West Berlin and the shifting demographics in both East and West Germany. The West German Government invested heavily in the international effort to study, categorize and propose solutions to problems of migration in the postwar era, creating a network of researchers, bureaucrats and leading politicians that maintained a significant influence over government decisions. One particular concern shared by the government and public in West Germany was that uncontrolled migration of refugees from East to West Germany would have a negative impact on a future reunified German
state. However, the construction of the Berlin Wall in 1961 effectively rendered these debates moot. Once the refugees ceased to arrive by the thousands, those remaining in West Berlin were quickly resettled and within a few years, issues of German refugee migration were no longer at the forefront of West German public discourse p><
