    There are signs of recovery in various parts of the global economy, starting in May, after the depressive dip imposed by Covid-19. Such signs emerged after the easing of restrictions on mobility established to flatten out the pandemic curves, and also reflected policies of flattening the recession curve (income transfers to part of the population, credit lines to vulnerable companies and others). Besides remaining far from giving back the GDP lost, in all countries, the r ...

    This article was originally published on Bruegel. The global economy is showing signs of recovery from the economic crisis caused by COVID-19, though the spread of the coronavirus is accelerating in some countries. In this circumstance, policymakers must weigh up the trade-offs involved in dealing with the pandemic while easing lock downs and sustaining economic activity. Differences in age structures, urbanisation rates and other factors will inform decision making in different co ...

    July 14, 2020
    La propagation de la COVID-19 à l’échelle mondiale a provoqué un état de peur et d’anxiété généralisé, d’abord en raison des craintes d’infection et de l’angoisse de la mort, puis à cause des incertitudes durables autour de la nature de l’épidémie, ses modes de transmission, son degré de férocité, et l’efficacité des protocoles d’intervention thérapeutiques permettant de sauver les contaminés. Il convient de distinguer deux situations souvent confondues : D’une part, les effets psyc ...

    En février 2020, j’ai publié un livre, « La mondialisation et nous », dans lequel j’ai analysé la place du sud dans les grands chamboulements que connaît cette mondialisation. Les mots clés des quatre chroniques contenues dans le présent cahier : vulnérabilité / fragilité / chamboulement / incertitude / imprévisibilité / sidération / régionalisation / relocalisation / santé / environnement / équité / réputation / épreuves / opportunités sont ceux qui sont revenus récurremment sous l ...

    La crise de la COVID-19 aura été tant un point de départ que le révélateur de profonds bouleversements économiques, sociaux, et humains au Maroc et dans le reste du monde. Cette pandémie aura également été à l’origine d’un vent d’incertitude pour les populations, entraînant ainsi de fortes répercussions sur la santé publique, la quiétude de l’humain et sa sécurité. En effet, les dimensions sécuritaire et sanitaire, ainsi que les enjeux posés, ont contribué à la consécration de l’Eta ...

    June 26, 2020
    La jeune démocratie tunisienne a réussi le double pari de juguler la propagation de la pandémie de la Covid-19, tout en s’érigeant en un modèle régional de gestion de la crise sanitaire. Désormais, le pays doit remédier aux chocs économiques engendrés par la pandémie et pourrait connaitre la pire récession de son histoire. Dans cette tempête annoncée, l’accélération de la transition économique s’avère nécessaire, non seulement pour refonder le système économique, mais aussi pour pré ...
