Abstract
What role does the current generation of Moroccan youth have in their country’s future and in the political and social climate after the Arab Spring? Is the stability of Morocco during the Arab Spring due to the so-called Moroccan exception? This paper investigates the relationship between media and political, religious and social values in mobilizing or demobilizing young Moroccans. Using data from the World Values Survey, the political and social climate leading up the Arab Spring is analyzed. Salient questions relating to the role of the Moroccan youth are addressed based on analysis of data. Why are young Moroccans not asking for regime change like the many of their peers in Tunisia, Egypt, Yemen and Syria? Is the nature of their political claims similar to or different from the claims of youth in other Arab countries?
