This study is devoted to the transformation of traditional tribe from the Moroccan Atlas. Over the last century it has transformed from a structure based on the idea of nominal kinship into the unit that has become an inherent part of the local administration (as the commune rurale), and then into the political entity modeled on the principles of civil society (NGOs). This process of transformation is considered in the context of the Shafirian monarchy where the power of ruling dynasty is legitimated by its derivation from the Prophet Mohammed and the idea of „the rule of the righteous”. In this context, the role of the National Initiative for Human Development (l’Initiative Nationale pour le Développement Humain, INDH), established in 2003 by Mohammed VI, is discussed. INDH aims to improve the quality of life in areas of underdevelopment and its establishment can be seen as a contemporary manifestation of „the rule of the righteous”. Mohammed’s VI initiative has also provided the impetus for a real „explosion” of local associations for development. In rural areas they became an emanation of modern post-tribal structures which refer to the discourse of civil society.
