| Riassunto: | The democratic change in Morocco : a half-way open door, The ascension to the throne of Mohammed VI, after the death of his father on July 23, 1999, aroused a great deal of hope for a truly democratic change in the country. The new king showed a real willingness toward the democratization of his country – beyond the superficial gestures made by Abraham Serfaty in his country, or the dismissal of Driss Basri in November, 1999 – through a political discourse on the necessity to reform the constitution and to reinforce the role of the parliamentary and governmental institutions, on the recognition of Amazighe as the national language, on the willingness to turn the page on the years of political violence and toward the creation of a true state of law. But five years after the Mohammed VI’s ascension to the throne, a large part of the politicians and police force from the most repressive periods are still in place, even if they are joined by former oppositional leaders, and a revision of the current constitution that guarantees a system of government where the monarchy in the central point is no longer in question. The king continues to rule and to govern. |
