    L’Afrique a perdu 70 % de ses arrivées touristiques en 2020, selon le dernier baromètre de l’Organisation mondiale du tourisme (OMT), soit un peu moins que la moyenne mondiale (74 %). Au début de la crise, l’Union africaine (UA) s’inquiétait surtout pour les petits pays insulaires fortement dépendants du tourisme. Les Seychelles ont perdu 71 % de leurs visiteurs en 2020, avec 114 850 arrivées contre 384 000 en 2019, et 61 % de leurs revenus touristiques. Lourde perte, dans la mesur ...

    Brazil, an oil-exporting nation, was still struggling to recover from the depression which started around 2014/15 when it was hit by a quick succession of shocks: the COVID-19 pandemic and the oil price collapse. The global pandemic triggered major economic dislocations and contractions in foreign and domestic markets, which further exacerbated the fall in demand for oil, sending world prices tumbling further. Poverty was already widespread in Brazil pre-pandemic. And despite recen ...

    February 26, 2021
    Economic development analysis must inevitably rely on a double methodological standpoint. On the one hand, it needs to search for common features, those general attributes that might be present in all national experiences of wealth accumulation, poverty reduction, and moving up the income ladder. On the other, in order to be meaningful, it must reckon with time and space. It must consider that those universal development traits will play out in specific historical and geographical c ...
