This joint Bruegel-OCP Policy Center publication comprised of four policy contributions from researchers of both institutions is the result of the establishment of “Platform for Advanced & Emerging Economies Policy Dialogue.” The first edition of this continuous dialogue took place in Rabat on April 1st 2016 under the theme of “Seven Years after the Crisis: Intersecting Perspectives.”

In the first paper, “Youth Unemployment in the Mediterranean Region and its Long term Implications”, written by Nuria Boot, Karen E. Wilson and Guntram B. Wolff, the focus is on the correlation between youth unemployment in the Mediterranean region and the problems that this leads to in Europe as a whole.

The second paper, “Energy Across the Mediterranean: A call for Realism”, by Simone Tagliapietra and George Zachmann, advises the European Union to draw lessons from two decades of unproductive regional cooperation attempts.

Karim El Aynaoui, Uri Dadush, Karim El Mokri and Rim Berahab contributed with the paper “The Unmet Challenge of Interdependence in the EU-MENA space: A View from the South”. They examine bilateral relations between Europe and the Arab world, especially as they relate to trade, migration, investment, and energy.

In “Industrial Policy, Structural Change and Global Value Chains Participation: A Case Study of Morocco, Tunisia and Egypt”, Abdelaaziz Ait Ali and Yassine Msadfa use two methods to analyse the pace of structural transformation (the positive change in manufacturing capability) in Morocco, Tunisia and Egypt.

    During the past few years, the different global ongoing events have left us baffled and astonished. Given the decreasing ability to understand and assimilate the amount of changes, mutations, and crises, one would wonder: what happened to the global order? How has -in this short period of time- the power of its values and institutions that much decreased? What are the causes for these protectionist and massive populist waves? Why are we witnessing an increasing settlement of conflic ...

    Diagnostic Stratégique de l’émergence économique du Maroc

    Moubarack Lo
    November 28, 2019
    Le préalable et la première démarche d’une bonne évaluation de la marche du Maroc vers l’émergence consistent à bien clarifier ce concept. C’est le seul moyen d’apprécier convenablement, à terme, si le Maroc a atteint ou non l’objectif ainsi désiré. Selon le dictionnaire Le Robert, « émerger » se dit d’un phénomène « qui s’impose à l’attention par sa valeur ». Subséquemment, on peut considérer qu’un pays, anciennement pauvre, émerge lorsqu’il suscite l’intérêt et se démarque de la m ...

    China and the European Union have an extensive and growing economic relationship. The relationship is problematic because of the distortions caused by China’s state capitalist system and the diversity of interests within the EU’s incomplete federation. More can be done to capture the untapped trade and investment opportunities that exist between the parties. China’s size and dynamism, and its recent shift from an export-led to a domesticdemand- led growth model, mean that these oppo ...

    Le prix du meilleur roman africain de science-fiction au titre de l’année 2017 a été remporté par Tade Thompson pour son livre intitulé “Rosewater” qui aborde la lutte contre les cyber-fraudes au Nigéria en 2066. Cette référence à un roman de science-fiction n’est pas fortuite dans la mesure où le mot “cyberespace”, inspiré du mot “cybernétique”, fut utilisé, pour la première fois, en 1984, par l’auteur de romans de science-fiction William Gibson, pour désigner “Une hallucination co ...
