    La pandémie Covid-19 a éclairé notre connaissance sur les limites de certains concepts pour saisir les vulnérabilités sociales. Elle invite les chercheurs et les décideurs à prendre une certaine distanciation avec les catégories conventionnelles, et à engager un débat sur la mesure de la complexité sociale. Combien y-a-t-il de pauvres au Maroc ? La pauvreté commence où et s’achève quand ? Les pauvretés monétaires et multidimensionnelles désignent-elles les mêmes réalités que seule l ...

    It was notthe way you would expect a scientist to be celebrated. InStyle, an American fashion magazine showed on its cover Anthony Fauci, America’s frontline warrior against the COVID-19 virus. Fauci has been director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases since 1984, and has been honored by presidents since Ronald Reagan, battling against HIV/Aids, SARS, swine flu, MERS, and Ebola. He is, BBC News stated, “the face of America’s fight against COVID-19”. The vir ...

    Le Registre social unique (RSU) est un mécanisme de ciblage social dont les avantages sont attendus par toutes les parties prenantes impliquées dans la réforme des filets sociaux. Son adoption n’est pas une fin en soi. Outil technique, il est au service d’une finalité première, celle de gérer l’affectation des ressources publiques consacrées à la lutte contre la pauvreté et la vulnérabilité, dans un double souci d’efficacité et d’équité. L’atteinte de cette finalité est conditionnée ...

    The aim of this paper is to assess the regional economic impact of the lockdown measures ordered by the national government to prevent the spread of COVID-19. Using an input–output model, we estimate the economic loss of extracting groups of formal and informal workers from different economic sectors. Results show monthly economic losses that represent between 0.5% and 6.1% of national GDP, depending on the scenario considered. Accommodation and food services, real estate, administr ...

    Le ciblage est un point de focalisation de l’impact social des programmes de lutte contre la pauvreté et des aides monétaires de l’Etat aux catégories sociales pauvres et vulnérables. La pratique du ciblage n’est pas récente dans la trajectoire des politiques publiques. Elle donne lieu à des controverses sur les méthodes appropriées pour atteindre les populations cibles ou les territoires prioritaires des politiques et programmes sociaux. Les difficultés du ciblage sont devenues le ...

    This article was originally published on Bruegel. The global economy is showing signs of recovery from the economic crisis caused by COVID-19, though the spread of the coronavirus is accelerating in some countries.

Besides remaining far from giving back the GDP lost, in all countries, the recovery fa ...
