Biography of a Mother from the Margins: An Anthropological Approach is an anthropological biography that reconstructs the life of a marginalized Moroccan mother using a subaltern studies framework. By centering a voice overlooked by dominant social science scholarship in Morocco – where male biographies and male-centered stories dominate – it shows that the stories of neglected women in Morocco are not just about anguish, hardship or grievance, but are markers on an arc of hope.
