Un Tournant pour l’Economie Mondiale : L’Europe se réveille, l’Asie consolide sa position
February 21, 2018

2018 marque incontestablement un tournant dans l’évolution de l’économie mondiale. L’Europe, après avoir amorcé une sortie de crise en 2017, pourrait entrer dans une phase d’expansion durable notamment grâce à une augmentation structurelle de la production industrielle, et au projet réformiste et pro-européen porté par le couple franco-allemand.

Ces évolutions transforment le système économique mondial, et nous interrogent, nous Marocains, Maghrébins, et Africains, sur notre capacité à négocier avec cet environnement en mutation.

Torn between its position within the Greater Middle East (Culcasi 2008, 128 and Fukuyama 2008, 206) from one side, and Sub Saharan Africa on the other, this East African state is landlocked in a region marked by intense and long-standing political strife and conflicts, and is directly exposed to regional insecurity and political volatility. Against this unstable background, successive regimes and governments in Addis Ababa have ...

    The tendency towards urbanisation in the emerging world accompanied by the constant pursuit of higher productivity has prompted many studies which aim to understand agglomeration economies. In the context of Brazil, a country with extremely high regional disparities, exploring this issue is important not only for private stakeholders but also for public policy practitioners.
