Claret and couscous the symbolic townscape of a Moroccan mountain resort [Ressource électronique] :
The article focuses on the Moroccan mountain resort Ifrane, constructed by the French colonial administration in the late 1920s. In summer, open pastures are lush and green, and the landscape is dotted with stands of cypress. In winter, snow falls give Ifrane the air of a small Alpine ski resort. Ifrane is a complex bundle of power relations, a window into the dynamics of colonial landscapes and its intriguing townscape reflects the imprint of French colonial urban planning seventy years ago.
