"THE MAGHREB CONNECTION is a collaborative art and visual research project on the North African migratory space." (Biemann, Ursula: Preface, S. 2) "Finally I should mention that we feel very privileged to present the project at the Townhouse Gallery Cairo and CAC Centre d'art Contemporain Geneva [...]. CAC Geneva has also contributed to the production of the publication. The MAGHREB CONNECTION book goes beyond a documentation of the exhibition, it is the result of thorough research and reflection undertaken over an extended time period." ( Biemann, Ursula: Preface, S. 3)

This volume takes examples from Morocco, Egypt, Palestine, Iraq, Syria and Germany to demonstrate the potential and the limitations of youth research in the Arab world and beyond. The study of young adults is still underdeveloped as an area of research. Despite growing awareness of its vital significance since September 11th, not a single comprehensive youth study exists for an Arab country. Current research is often scattered, partly inaccessible, and to a great extent concentrates on specialized topics.
