| description | In the fall of 2010, as a prelude to the popular protests in the Maghreb and Mashreq, the Sahrawis engaged in a totally unexpected action : they set up the Gdeim Izik peaceful camp to draw attention to their political, economic and social situation within the territories occupied by Morocco in Western Sahara. The purpose of our study is to explain the development of the Gdeim Izik protests and provide the necessary elements to better understand the shortterm impact of this event in the occupied territories and in the Sahrawi refugee camps in Tindouf (Algeria). These effects materialized in the revitalization of the conflict by new forms of protest (such as the establishment of settlements outside urban centers) in the emergence of new players in the Sahrawi protest space (including young unemployed people and Human Rights activists), in the transition from peaceful actions to more radical and violent reactions, or in the escalating tensions between the different populations that live together in the region. |
