Opposition learning in Morocco through the lense of football
This article investigates opposition learning in Morocco through the lense of football. Opposition learning can be defined as the processes through which opposition actors change the claims, loci, structures and networks utilized in their contestation of the powers that be. The focus here is on the latter three factors. I explore football stadiums as a channel for the expression and mobilization of opposition, and look at the new organized structures and activist networks centred around them.
