Questions : 1/ Pensez-vous que les pays en développement et émergents sont plus enclins à adopter des réformes structurelles que par le passé ? 2/ Le fait que l’impact des réformes structurelles met du temps à se concrétiser est-il de nature à encourager les pays en développement et émergents à s’y engager ? 3/ Que doit-on retenir des réformes engagées par le Maroc ?

    After many decades of expansion, incomes and standards of living have never been better in many parts of the world. Yet, in the developed economies, there is anxiety over the loss of manufacturing jobs that once absorbed a large share of the labor force and created a middle class that formed the core of democracy. The vast majority of middle- income countries have not yet been able to make the transition to the high-income group despite decades of growth. Progress among low-income c ...

    The rise of protectionism, economic nationalism and nativism in the United States can be attributed inter alia to the nation’s wage stagnation and rising inequality. Other countries are responding by reevaluating their reliance on the American hegemon. But this is not enough. Policy-makers also need to ask what lessons they can draw for their domestic policies from the United States’ success in creating wealth while, at the same time, failing to distribute it equitably and to reduce ...

    Location decisions of firms and workers shape the spatial distribution of economic activity between and within cities. On one hand, the interaction between cities is widely investigated in the literature of regional and urban economics, which tries to assess the extent to which urban scale affects the local concentration of different skills, sectors, etc., apart from defining each city's role in the regional system. On the other hand, within-city dynamics and internal heterogeneity ...

    Le présent ouvrage se propose d’apporter quelques éléments d’appui supplémentaires aux policy-makers pour une meilleure identification des défaillances des marchés au Maroc et une mise en place d’une stratégie de diversification et une politique industrielle efficientes, sans toutefois tomber dans la situation inverse où une stratégie mal définie et des outils mal choisis peuvent se traduire par une défaillance des politiques publiques. L’appréhension des difficultés qu’éprouve l’é ...

    The global unemployment rate inched up to 5.7 percent this year after several years of decline. This reflects sharp increases in unemployment in the Latin America and Caribbean region and among fuel-exporting countries. Hence, while the total number of people unemployed around the globe will remain somewhat stable at about 175 million, several million people will be added to the ranks of the unemployed in these two groups of countries. Unemployment rates are expected to decline in m ...

    Should Developing Countries Fear Secular Stagnation?

    July 21, 2016
    The pace of global growth has tapered off since the crisis and the ensuing rebound. The concept of ‘secular stagnation’ was first used in 1938 by Alvin Hanson in reference to the American economy during the Great Depression. It refers to a situation where growth is slow over a protracted period, underemployment prevails and inflation is low. In such situations, the propensity to save tends to increase as a result of uncertainty and pessimism, and liquidity – which depends on interba ...

    L’écart entre filles et garçons en termes de scolarisation, au Maroc, a longtemps préoccupé tant les académiciens que les décideurs. En revanche, très peu d’études se sont penchées sur l’analyse de cet écart sous une toile de fond quantitative. Ce présent travail s’intéresse à l’écart genre en termes d’acquis scolaires en lecture. La finalité étant de mettre en exergue les facteurs influençant les différences de performance entre les genres ainsi que leur ampleur. Pour ce faire, une ...
