Comme l'affirmait Durkheim, « la cohésion sociale des petites sociétés (mécaniques) et indifférenciées, différenciées par une division du travail (organique) relativement complexe » (Britannica, 2016). Durant les transitions de cette nature, les individus s’interrogent sur leur existence en tant que citoye ...

    The continuous and reinforced process of accumulating physical capital, in which Morocco has embarked since the early 2000s, has helped to preserve the stability of the fundamental equilibrium and cushion the economy from various external and exogenous shocks. However, these accumulation efforts have not led to a significant increase in productivity gains or to an accelerated transformation of the productive base. This Policy Brief aims to describe the underpinnings of the capital a ...

Cependant, cet effort d’accumulation n’a pas permis d’insuffler un accroissement significatif des gains de productivité et d’accélérer la transformation de la base productive. Ce Policy Brief propose de décri ...
