description A guiding premise of this collective project is that Maghrebi writers, artists, filmmakers, and activists are – as they have long been – important theorists and critics of violence. The articles that make up this special issue of The Journal of North African Studies consider from multiple perspectives the transformative potential of aesthetic expression in political and social contexts defined by intersecting forms of violence. Together, these scholars explore new terrain for literary and aesthetic study in a disciplinary space that has been determined by the prerogatives of area studies and conditioned by discourses of terror and state security. We live and work in precarious and dangerous times. To put the central question of this project plainly: in such times, what difference do art and literature make?
