    Latin American economies are facing two historically defining challenges. First, how to cope with the end of the commodities “super-cycle” and the prospect of a long period of low prices for basic natural resources. After all, raw materials production and semi-industrialized goods encompass most of their comparative advantages. Second, and even more exacting, how to adjust to the present disruptive transition from an old to a new global economic and social model. The 20th century in ...

The referendum probably signals the end of an experiment widely supported by the young, the elites and most economists, but which has failed in the eyes of the majority of British people. For Britain, the economic risks a ...

    The Atlantic basin holds a strategic place in the global economy given the systemic importance that the northern part of the region represents. However, this area remains very heterogeneous with significant differences between the economies within it. The analysis conducted in this policy brief also shows the lack of synchronization of the economic cycle among the countries in the region, and especially the low level of trade and financial integration of the African part of the basi ...

    L’écart entre filles et garçons en termes de scolarisation, au Maroc, a longtemps préoccupé tant les académiciens que les décideurs. En revanche, très peu d’études se sont penchées sur l’analyse de cet écart sous une toile de fond quantitative. Ce présent travail s’intéresse à l’écart genre en termes d’acquis scolaires en lecture. La finalité étant de mettre en exergue les facteurs influençant les différences de performance entre les genres ainsi que leur ampleur. Pour ce faire, une ...
