Description
Summary:The debate on a relaxation of the penalization of the abortion in Morocco accelerated in 2014-2015 at the instigation of the president of an association, gynecologist-obstetrician, and the diffusion of a report on a French television channel. Representatives of political parties, religious, representatives of civil society, public administration then expressed contrasting or even ambiguous positions with regard to the attitude of the gynecologist president of the association who led the debate and the issue of abortion. The public scope of the debate was halted by the intervention of King Mohamed VI who decided in favor of a minimum relaxation of the law. The article, based essentially on press articles, traces the dynamics of this debate and its conclusion, and shows how this dynamic is illustrative of the management of the "public thing" in Morocco.
