The unprecedented political uprisings known as the Arab Spring were echoed in the Moroccan context in a form of peaceful demonstrations under the umbrella of February 20th Movement that demanded change. While the Moroccan version of the Arab Spring is primarily characterized by pushing for reform, we find that some political actors advocated stripping that process off legitimacy. These contrasted strategies seem to have been a result of emerging political potentialities that became available during the course of action orchestrated by those who opposed reform. This paper attempts to examine the constitutional reform process through analyzing the perceptions of the political actors regarding the methodology and the content of the 2011 Constitution.
