Moroccan identity and political action among youth

This thesis adopts an interdisciplinary prism, combining the contributions of sociology, psychosociology and political sociology, in order to empirically explore the identity process in its moments: relationship to the self and relationship to the other, and then, the process of politicization by showing the effect of social representations relating to identity in the choice of conventional and/or non-conventional political action among young people. Despite the abundance of literature devoted to these two major processes, little field research has sought to interweave and articulate their respective contributions. The originality of this thesis lies precisely in this. From an identity constructivist perspective, this research tests the hypothesis that social representations of identity guide the choice of political action. The empirical material that gives substance to this analysis is derived from an e-questionnaire and semi-structured interviews with a group of young people. The analysis of the data reveals the correlation between the processes of identity and politicization, which leads us to reconsider the place of identity in the political sphere.
