Authors

Cet article présente une analyse quantitative, dans le cadre d’un modèle à générations imbriquées, des relations entre la transformation industrielle, la croissance économique et l’emploi, ainsi que du rôle des politiques publiques dans ce contexte. Le modèle tient compte des activités d’imitation et d’innovation, du système éducatif, du capital public en infrastructure de base et infrastructure avancée, des distorsions du marché du travail, et d’une relation bidirectionnelle entre les investissements directs étrangers et la qualité du capital humain. La solution stationnaire du modèle est calibrée pour le Maroc et une série de simulations de politiques économiques individuelles (une hausse de l’investissement en infrastructure, une réforme du système éducatif, une réduction du degré d’indexation des salaires, une politique de promotion de la migration de travailleurs qualifiés, une hausse des investissements directs étrangers et une politique d’amélioration du climat des affaires), ainsi que plusieurs programmes intégrés de réformes, sont analysés.

    Venezuela holds crucial presidential elections on July 28. The results might substantially alter the political system in that country, since, for the first time since 1998, the opposition candidate has a clear chance of winning the vote. Why has the opposition been unable to win elections in that country for almost three decades now? And why is it on the verge of winning elections this time? What is the international dimension of this electoral process? How might it impact Morocco? ...

    In January 2024, gunmen invaded a TV studio in Ecuador, seized journalists and staff as hostages, and interrupted the regular programs. That episode highlighted the rise of violence in Ecuador, a country that was until very recently calm and peaceful. In this paper, I place the rise of violence in Ecuador within the context of what some refer to as the endemic violence in Latin America. I explore its risks, consequences, and the ways it could be tackled. I also emphasize some of the ...
