Abstract
This text explores gender inequalities in Morocco by articulating patriarchal continuity and attempts at destabilization through gender studies. It takes as its starting point the pioneering initiative of Fatima Sadiqi, who founded the first women's research center (1996) and the first gender studies unit (2000) at the University of Fez. These structures aimed to introduce the concept of gender into the humanities and social sciences to deconstruct sociocultural obstacles to equality. Since then, the integration of similar programs in other universities has strengthened the visibility of these issues in higher education. Based on a discourse analysis of representations of women, dominant attitudes, and reactions to legal reforms, this text examines the impact of these academic initiatives on the destabilization of patriarchal structures in Moroccan society.
