Abstract

This paper compares the national liberation movements in Morocco and Algeria, including the phase of anti-colonial struggle and modernization. In contrast to structural determinism, this paper emphasizes subjective agency and explains the process of national liberation movements in Morocco and Algeria by sociological concepts including nationalism, symbols, and discourse. Morocco and Algeria are very different in the way they utilized and dealt with Islam, but they eventually came to similar results — a good balance between Islam and secular politics, preserving the fruits of liberation movements, and achieving modernization with national characteristics. Through comparison, this paper will summarize the different institutions by which Islam operated in the national liberation movements, reveal the laws of interaction between religion and secular politics, and provide a new perspective for interpreting the history of national liberation in Algeria and Morocco.
