The women's rights movement in Morocco includes a variety of projects placed in service of a larger goal: to change the body of laws affecting women's rights and responsibilities within the family and society, and to teach women about their rights. This agenda requires a two-part process: convincing women to become members of the movement, and convincing the Moroccan public of the importance of legal and social change. Based on ethnographic fieldwork among a variety of associations, the dissertation treats the first part of this process by investigating the personal motivations that bring individuals to associations and how they are transformed into activists. The process of convincing the public is treated by examining a series of three frames for discourse and action within the women's rights movement. The first two grew directly out of the efforts of global feminism and its emphasis in the 1980's on equality and in the 1990's on women's rights as human rights. The Moroccan women's rights movement has attempted over time to localize these discourses, leading to a third frame that signifies a new and necessary concern with the role of women within families. The dissertation argues for a processual analysis of this social movement that pays careful attention to an interweaving of the global, national, and local, in order to understand how and why a concept of 'rights' is made locally relevant and meaningful.
