- Abstract
- Problematic of multi-culturalism atrracts new attention in this age of migration and
globalization. It influences also area studies, especially changing perspective on
the characteristics of each society. And some case studies of societies, where the
co-existence of different ethnic groups has long history, would be significant as
reference concerning studies of multiculturalism.
Mediterranean region has one of the most remarkable history of migration and
communication among different cultures and civilizations: cross-cultural
communication would be even one of the essential factors of Mediterranean.
For more close observation, I took a case of Islamic city in Mediterranean region,
Fes of Morocco, for this problematic. My questions in this case study of Islamic
city are follows: What and how was the diversity of ethnic and regional groups in
this city? What was the logic and reality about the spatial distribution,
inter-community relationship, integration and disintegration of urban communities,
and sometimes exclusions? How the co-existence and, if we can say, multicultural
organization of society functioned in that city? How some inevitable conflicts
were treated in that Islamic city? And, finally, how the introduction of modernity,
through some tumultuous history of colonialism and independence in 20th century
affected its` long tradition of cultural diversity?
The composition of Fez`s urban population was cosmopolitan since the founding years
of the city in 8th century. Migrants from different regions of Mediterranean like
Tunisia, Spain, Turkey and Arabian peninsular, first generations of Fez`s urban
residents were themselves descendants of various diaspora communities. Diversity
and cultural pluralism seems to be a strong tradition of Mediterranean Islamic
city in this case. The co-existence of different ethnic, regional, and religious
groups, nevertheless, did not mean the reign of total harmony. Conflicts among
communities were incessant composing factors of this city. Between royal elites
and civil society, and between descendants of Andalousia and those of Kayrouan,
for example, efforts of negotiation did not take away history of battles and
trials of mutual elimination. But principally the system of negotiation and
cohabitation took the root in urban tradition of Fez. With the introduction of
modernity and nationalism in 20th century, however, the situation changed.
This means that once acquired tradition of Fez`s cultural diversity can be under
danger even in this age of globalization.
