Nadia Bouras (2023)

Nadia Bouras (born 1981, Amsterdam, The Netherlands) is a Dutch historian of Moroccan descent.[1]

Education

Bouras graduated in history at the Free University of Amsterdam. In 2012, she published her Ph.D.-thesis, Het Land van Herkomst, Perspectieven op verbondenheid met Marokko, 1960–2010 (The Country of Origin: Perspectives on Alliance with Morocco, 1960–2010).[2]

Career

Bouras is one of four Moroccan Dutch members of the Conseil de la Communauté Marocaine à l'Étranger (Assembly of Overseas Moroccan Community Council) or CCME.[2]

In celebration of the 40th anniversary of the treaty allowing mass-recruitment of Moroccans for Dutch industries, Bouras (together with Annemarie Cottaar and Fatiha Laouikili) wrote a book entitled Marokkanen in Nederland: de pioniers vertellen (Moroccans in the Netherlands: Pioneers Tell Their Stories, ed. Meulenhof 2009).[3] The book deals with the history of arrival, settlement, and integration of Moroccans in Dutch society.[4][5][6] Bouras interviewed many Moroccan immigrants for a 2019 article "Vijf mythes over de komst van Marokkaanse gastarbeiders naar Nederland ontkracht" ("Five myths about the arrival of Moroccan guest-workers in the Netherlands disproved") in Trouw.[7] She also coauthored Rif Tour: Marokkanen in Nederland 1960–1973 (with Cottaar, Laouikili and Annemarie Boer).[8]
