Cultural Displacement in Brussels with Maghrebi Women
This article explores the relationships between the spatial conditions and the behavior of migrant Maghrebi women in Brussels. It traces the dichotomy of private versus public space and the transformations of these notions in the immigrant community. In light of the strong, rich original culture, which is undergoing a sort of revival with the young generation of Maghrebi migrants, displacements of different kinds affect women who are no longer completely submerged in traditional and religious structures. Therefore, the spaces occupied or rejected by Maghrebi women in Brussels are laden with additional and new values, which lead to a reconsideration of the dichotomy of private and public in European cities today.
