Mohammed Bennis is a Moroccan poet and one of the most prominent writers of modern Arabic poetry. Since the 1970s,he has enjoyed a particular status within Arab culture. Muhsin J al-Musawi states that "Bennis’articulations tend to validate his poetry in the first place,to encapsulate the overlapping and contestation of genres in a dialectic,that takes into account power politics whose tropes are special. As a discursive threshold between Arab East and the Moroccan West,tradition and modernity,and also a site of contestation and configuration,Muhammad Bennis' self-justifications may reveal another poetic predilection,too."

Science and technology in Morocco has significantly developed in recent years. The Moroccan government has been implementing reforms to encourage scientific research in the Kingdom. While research has yet to acquire the status of a national priority in Morocco,the country does have major assets that could transform its R&D sector into a key vehicle for development. The industry remains dominated by the public sector,with the universities employing 58% of researchers. Morocco's own evaluation of its national research system –carried out in 2003 –revealed that the country has a good supply of well trained high quality human resources and that some laboratories are of very high quality. However,the greatest gap at that point of time lied in the link between research and innovation. The educational qualifications of Moroccan researchers have increased significantly since the early 1990s. The University of Al-Karaouine is considered the oldest continuously operating academic degree-granting university in the world.
