La vision stratégique 2015-2030 constitue une innovation dans le domaine éducatif marocain. Contrairement aux réformes précédentes, cette vision aborde à des problèmes qui ont été longtemps occultés. Parmi ces problèmes figure la qualité de l’enseignement. Si cette dernière meublait toujours les programmes des anciennes réformes, elle est considérée comme l’une des priorités de cette nouvelle vision. L’objectif du présent Policy Brief est de dresser un état des lieux des acquis scolaires, partie intégrante de la qualité de l’enseignement, des élèves inscrits en quatrième année du primaire. Nous nous appuyions sur les enquêtes « Trends in Mathematics and Science Study » (TIMSS) et « Progress In Reading and Literacy Study » (PIRLS) auxquelles le Maroc a participé. La finalité consiste à mettre en lumière les déficits accumulés tout au long de ces dernières années.

    Les fonds souverains, objet de toutes les attentions au cours des années 2000, devraient voir leur rôle de « stabilisateur » de l’économie se renforcer dans les mois à venir, en raison de la chute du prix des matières premières. Ces véhicules d’investissement doivent cependant être coordonnés avec les outils traditionnels de la politique fiscale et ne peuvent affranchir les pouvoirs publics d’effectuer à plus ou moins long terme les ajustements budgétaires que ce nouvel environnemen ...

    A chequered African history of commodity markets, part one: bauxite and aluminium
    Authors

    August 28, 2015
    The African endowment in mineral resources is well known and has often been a mixed blessing, according to the socalled “natural resources curse”. Bauxite, an ore that serves as a feedstock for aluminium production, is particularly present in Guinean soil but, notwithstanding its efforts to do so, this country has not yet succeeded in transforming this red treasure into a real source of social and economic development. Despite the difficult economic context and a long road ahead, th ...

    Struggling with slow growth, many countries (advanced and developing), have allowed their currencies to slide against the U.S. dollar. Until recently, China stood out in resisting this trend, and indeed had seen a large appreciation against the US dollar over several years. So many saw its abrupt change of course not only as signaling deep trouble in China but also as opening the door to a bout of destabilizing currency competition. These troubling developments raise two important q ...

    The roller-coaster ride of Chinese commodity markets

    July 27, 2015
    The Chinese stock markets have been recently affected by plummeting indexes and high volatility. The substantial level of “mom and pop” speculators has been identified as one of the reason for these dynamics. Although there is no speculative bubble at the moment, we may question the impact of potential excessive trading on the promising future of Chinese commodity exchanges. ...
