Les Politiques Economiques de Relance Post-Covid-19 : Regards Croisés

June 12, 2020

Le Laboratoire d’Economie Appliquée ( LEA) de la Faculté des Sciences Juridiques Economiques et Sociales Rabat - AGDAL en partenariat avec le Policy Center for the New South, a le plaisir de vous inviter à participer à la table ronde organisée sous le thème «Les politiques économiques de relance Post Covid-19 : Regards croisés », qui se tiendra le vendredi 12 juin 2020 à 18h00 (Heure de Rabat). Les politiques économiques de gestion de la crise issue du covid-19 sont en rupture avec les pratiques antérieures. Elles sont audacieuses et révèlent au grand jour la capacité des pays, quand ils mettent en stand-by les prêts à penser- orthodoxes-, à gérer des chocs extrêmes. Il s’agit maintenant d’examiner la capacité des politiques économiques de relance post Covid-19 à l’échelle internationale et au Maroc, de saisir cet effet de révélation, de le traduire en stratégies innovantes à même de reconstruire un Maroc social inclusif et durable.

For this to happen, there must be ‘policy demand’ from the private sector to use the agreement’s range of protoc ...

    L'idée d'un effritement de la classe moyenne marocaine est répandue, suggérant un glissement vers une classe aisée toujours plus riche et des classes plus pauvres ce qui sous-entend une augmentation de la polarisation dans la société. Cependant, aucune étude basée sur des données n'a été menée pour confirmer cette perception. Notre étude comble ce vide en analysant l'évolution de la classe moyenne entre 2012 et 2019. En utilisant la définition opérationnelle de Abdelkhalek (2014) de ...

    This paper aims to quantify the economic loss from the earthquake that hit Morocco on September 8, 2023, and to evaluate the impact of the five-year reconstruction plan, that will account for roughly 8.5% of GDP. Given the geographically concentrated location of the earthquake, which hit some provinces in the central part of Morocco, the methodology used relies on an inter- province inter-industry Input-Output (IIO) table for Morocco. Assuming that the resources to be spent on infra ...

As a template they should l ...
