Maghreb Conflicts, Socioeconomic Crisis and Unity

Tuomo Melasuo

Chapter 4 in The Least Developed and the Oil-Rich Arab Countries, 1992, pp 49-63 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract For centuries the five North African countries, Algeria, Libya, Mauritania, Morocco and Tunisia, have been known as the Maghreb. In this chapter we concentrate on the central Maghreb states, that is Algeria, Morocco and Tunisia, and the problems of unity in the ‘Greater Maghreb’, which also includes Libya and Mauritania. The three central Maghreb countries gained their independence from French colonialism in 1956 and 1962. Since then they have undergone several radical structural changes and several crises.
