الفوارق في المغرب من منظور دولي
October 9, 2019

يعرف المغرب فوارق كبيرة على مستوى الدخل، ففي سنة 2013 بلغت حصة الـ%10 آٔلغىن من الساكنة ما يقارب %32 من الدخل الوطين، 1أي ما يعادل 12 ضعفا لحصة الـ%10 آٔلفقر. إن أي اتساع مفرط في الفوارق من شأنه أن يؤثر سلبا على وتيرة النمو على المدى الطويل، ألنه عادة ما يقترن بضعف في استغالل الموارد البشرية. ومن هذا المنطلق تدفع هذه المقالة بطرح مفاده أنه، باستلهام التجارب الدولية، يمكن للحكومة المغربية أن تفعل اليشء الكثير للحد من الفوارق دون التفريط في تعزيز التنمية، بل وربما يمكنها أن تفعل ذلك بطريقة ال تثقل كاهل الميزانية العامة، إن لم نقل بطريقة قد تكون لها آثار إيجابية على هذه الأخيرة

    COVID-19 has delivered a powerful double punch to the chin of the global economy, combining a terrifying pandemic with a collapse in production because of the withdrawal into their homes of half the world’s workers. The uncertainty generated by the medical and economic shock is paralyzing consumers and investors, and the dispersion of short-term economic forecasts is far wider than at any time in modern history, about six times greater than during the Great Financial Crisis.

    Confronted with surging unemployment and miles long lines at food banks across the United States, most states have begun reopening the economy. Many of these states are seeing rising numbers of new cases and face a real risk of relapsing into an uncontrolled pandemic. To avoid this outcome, they must adopt a strategy that entails testing, tracing, and isolation of the infected, with priority given to groups and places where the medical impact – reducing infections and saving lives – ...

    La Communauté économique des Etats de l’Afrique de l’Ouest (CEDEAO) est souvent présentée comme étant le système d’intégration régionale le plus dynamique du continent africain.

Néanmoins, le modèle de la CEDEAO souffre de deux paradoxes majeurs. Les paradoxes africains Le premier pa ...

We develop a trade-based index that reveals the relative water use intensities associated with specific interregional and international trade flows. The index is calculated considering the measures of water and value added embedded in trade flows associated with each regional origin-destinat ...

Rupture, continuité ou inflexion ? Une des perspectives qu’il convient de surveiller est celle relative à l’inflexion du processus de la mondialisation. C'est- ...

    Depuis l'entrée en vigueur de l'Accord de libre-échange (ALE) entre le Maroc et l'Union européenne (UE), il y a près de deux décennies, les performances des exportations marocaines vers les marchés de l'UE ont été plutôt décevantes, tandis que le déficit commercial du Maroc avec l'UE a augmenté de manière significative. Cela a conduit de nombreux observateurs à percevoir l'accord d'un oeil critique. Cependant, les balances commerciales bilatérales ne sont pas toujours suffisantes po ...

    The Service sector is central to economic growth, trade and employment across the world. Trade in services has increased from 8.5 per cent of global GDP in 1995 to 13.1 per cent of GDP in 2017. However, Africa is taking less advantage of these opportunities than others. In this policy brief we highlight important misconceptions that may be holding back services exports in Africa. The potential for services sector growth and services exports from low levels in Africa is large. Polici ...
