October 14, 2016Brazil’s GDP contraction since mid-2014 has multiple non-fiscal roots - Canuto (2016a; 2014) – but it has morphed into an unsustainable fiscal trajectory (Canuto, 2016b). Dealing with the latter has become a precondition for full economic recovery and the Brazilian government has submitted to Congress a constitutional amendment bill mandating a public spending cap for the next 20 years. This piece considers how the Brazilian landscape evolved toward such a precipice and why addition ... -

October 13, 2016Le Maroc est actuellement plus que jamais menacé par le piège des économies à revenu intermédiaire. Il se retrouve pris entre, d'une part, la concurrence accrue exercée par des pays à faible revenu sur les secteurs à faible productivité et intensifs en main d'œuvre et, d'autre part, la difficulté d'accélérer son rythme de transformation structurelle vers des activités à plus forte valeur ajoutée et à contenu technologique plus élevé. L'expérience internationale nous montre que rares ... -

The model is integrated with a GIS network. We illustrate the analytical capabilities of the model by looking at the domestic integration of the country. Improvements of transportation costs among Egyptian governorates and of their links to the broader world economy are considered in stylized simulations. The results provide quantitat ... -
October 13, 2016Morocco is now more than ever threatened by the trap of middle-income economies. On one hand, it is caught between increased competition from low-income countries in low productivity and labor-intensive sectors and, on the other hand, the difficulty of accelerating its pace of structural transformation towards activities with higher value added and higher technological content. International experience shows that few countries have managed to climb to the status of an advanced econo ... -
October 12, 2016In December 2015, a new international climate agreement was adopted, paving the way for increased mitigation and adaptation efforts. Governments firmly expressed the need for rapid action and 2016 will put the credibility of their commitments to the test. Climate policies are actually becoming more widespread, but they are also adjusting to local constraints and needs, suggesting that the establishment of a global emission regulation model is unlikely in the near future. While the l ... -

October 10, 2016Les personnes sont certes libres de choisir les lieux de leurs séjours dans le pays où ils résident, ce mouvement interne n’est pourtant pas sans impacts sur les politiques de l’Etat et sur ses stratégies. Les différences de peuplement sont à l’origine des disparités interrégionales qui à leur tour agissent sur la mobilité. Le dépeuplement de certaines régions peut les transformer en zones grises et incontrôlées, créant par là même des soucis sécuritaires et de défense. Si l’Etat n ...
