Notre Senior Fellow a répondu aux questions suivantes : 1/ Dans la région du Moyen-Orient et d’Afrique du Nord, en 2016 la part du revenu global des 1% les plus riches était 2,6 fois plus important que celle des 50% les plus pauvres. Sur quels leviers agir pour réduire les inégalités dans la région MENA ? 2/ En dépit des progrès réalisés dans les domaines de la croissance économique et du développement social, les inégalités demeurent élevées au Maroc. Quelle est votre explication? 3/ Les plus hautes autorités du Royaume insistent sur l’importance de la formation professionnelle. Pensez-vous que ceci va dans le sens de la réduction des inégalités ?

High inequality can adversely affect long-term growth as it tends to be associated with underutilization of human potential. This paper argues that, drawing on international experience, there is much more that Morocco’s government can do to reduce inequality while at the ...

    For decades, the North African Maghreb has been both a source of irregular migration to Europe and a gateway for sub-Saharan Africans transiting to Europe. Now the Maghreb is also emerging as a destination for migration. While Europe remains the preferred destination for most African migrants, reaching Europe is becoming increasingly difficult at precisely the time that migration pressures in Africa are mounting. Africa’s massive migration is just getting started—and this presents ...

    International trade has become a pervasive feature of our lives, yet it remains controversial and resisted across the world. High and rising income inequality, which is often blamed on international trade, especially trade with China, is one reason. But the main driver of inequality is new technology, not international trade. Although trade interacts with new technology in ways that often lead to higher inequality, trade and technology also lie at the root of economic advance. So th ...
