Abstract
This article expands the category of âreformâ to encompass a key area of urban infrastructure in colonial Tunisâthe housing for students at the ZaytÅ«na Mosque-University. Focusing on the French protectorate in Tunisia (1881â1956), I use documents from the Tunisian National Archives to frame housing as an intra-ZaytÅ«na matter from which French officials withdrew during the interwar period. The housing sector saw ZaytÅ«na students mobilize against their own professors, including prominent reformist intellectuals, who used evictions and other disciplinary tactics to manage and police students. This social history clarifies the praxis of reform, a topic usually studied in terms of intellectual history.
