(AR) Economic History of Morocco - مسار الاقتصاد المغربي عبر التاريخ

April 10, 2026

تتتبع هذه الحلقة التاريخ الاقتصادي للمغرب منذ تهميشه في القرن التاسع عشر تحت ضغط القوى الأوروبية، مرورًا بالثنائية الاستعمارية والتنمية التي قادها الدولة بعد الاستقلال، وصولًا إلى برامج التكيف الهيكلي في الثمانينيات. وقد عززت الإصلاحات الأخيرة مرونة الاقتصاد، مع مساهمة قطاعات الزراعة، وصناعة السيارات، والفوسفات في النمو. ومع ذلك، يواجه المغرب تحديات عالمية جديدة تتطلب نموذجًا تنمويًا يركز على الشمول الاجتماعي، والابتكار، والتحول البيئي

    This paper empirically examines the impact of exchange rate arrangements on current account imbalances within the African context. Following Friedman’s hypothesis (Friedman, 1953), we test the propositions stating that flexible exchange rate regimes limit the magnitude of real external shocks and permit smoother adjustments of external imbalances. Using a new de facto exchange rate regime classification, we employ two empirical methodologies to test this hypothesis: we first apply a ...

    Rarement, autant qu’en 2018, les marchés mondiaux de matières premières et de commodités auront été lle jouet non pas des tendances des « fondamentaux » (offre/demande et leur évolution), mais bien des convulsions d’une situation géopolitique mondiale qui, sous la houlette quelque peu déréglée des États-Unis de Donald Trump, a été particulièrement imprévisible. En effet, si 2018 restera dans les annales des marchés, c’est bien parce que les matières premières se sont retrouvées au p ...

    Morocco has moved towards a more flexible exchange rate system, by widening its currency fluctuation bands to +/- 2.5% around a central price. This transition will, in time, equip the Moroccan economy with a macroeconomic instrument acting as a shock absorber and facilitating rapid adjustment at lower costs. In the absence of such a mechanism, adjustment to macroeconomic shocks at times requires a contraction in demand and thereby a cyclical downturn in growth to restore external ba ...

    Depuis la fin de l’année 2017, le président Donald Trump mène plusieurs batailles commerciales, contre différents partenaires, sous prétextes de sauver des emplois industriels américains et de réduire le déficit commercial des États-Unis. S’il est difficile de se prononcer sur les effets des combats commerciaux amorcés par le président Trump, l’importance des opposants et des échanges pour l’économie mondiale en fait une source de risque pour la croissance, les emplois et les prix à ...
