    April 24, 2020
    Policymakers across the world face a dilemma: to lockdown the economy, and see output and employment collapse, or to open and face a surge of COVID-19 infections and deaths that could overwhelm the medical system? The choice is especially stark in poor countries, where many depend on what they earn day to day, and where the medical system is entirely unequipped to deal with the virus. In this brief we assess the likely path and geographic spread of the epidemic. We do so by examinin ...
  • The United States: Poverty, Race, and Healthcare in the Face of COVID-19
    Authors

    April 24, 2020
    The Coronavirus’ ugly and fierce spread throughout the world underscores the limitations of health infrastructure and shortcomings in public health administration. What’s more troubling, is the pandemic’s especially pernicious effects on vulnerable populations in the United States—ethnic and racial minorities, disabled persons, women, the elderly, and impoverished communities. The virus knows no boundaries and, yet, structural inequality makes it all the more terrifying for marginal ...

  • La Banque africaine de développement se mobilise face au coronavirus

    Leila Farah Mokaddem
    April 24, 2020
    Alors que les pays africains semblaient être épargnés par le coronavirus en début de crise, il apparait clairement aujourd’hui que ces derniers souffriront également des retombées négatives de cette pandémie. Compte tenu du nombre de cas relativement bas en comparaison avec les autres régions du monde, les systèmes de santé ne sont pas encore soumis à la pression observée ailleurs mais cela ne saurait tarder. Cependant, les effets négatifs sur l’économie sont eux déjà largement per ...

    Decolonizing the African University
    Authors
    Hisham Aidi
    April 24, 2020
    This Policy Brief looks at successive attempts to transform the African university, in initiatives that have alternately been termed part of a larger Africanization or decolonization project. We chart attempts at intellectual decolonization launched by African-born scholars such as Ali Mazrui and Samir Amin, as well as scholars from the African diaspora, including W.E.B. Du Bois and Walter Rodney. We will examine decolonization projects as launched in Makerere University and the Uni ...
  • Coronavirus and the risk of populism in Europe

    Helmut Sorge
    April 23, 2020
    When in early March, Italian Prime Minister Giuseppe Conti declared a lockdown in his nation, and urgently requested help from his European partners—medical equipment for hospital staff, including gloves and protective clothing, and ventilators, and testing kits—it took several days before there was a response. The BBC reported actions by Germany, France and the Czech Republic which “caused unease, when they decided to block exports of emergency equipment to neighbors in need, unti ...
  • Une représentation de la mondialisation : vulnérabilité et chamboulements
    Authors
    Fathallah Oualalou
    April 23, 2020
    2020 restera dans l’histoire l’année  du Coronavirus, bien sûr, mais, surtout, celle de l’ébranlement de nos certitudes. Le choc économique provoqué par la pandémie a révélé l’extrême vulnérabilité de la mondialisation, présentée jusque-là comme triomphante. Si nous sommes encore loin de la sortie de crise, nous savons déjà que la mondialisation n’en sortira pas indemne : elle ne sortira pas indemne de la révision radicale du fonctionnement de l’économie, des remises en cause des p ...

    April 23, 2020
    Le Maroc est aujourd’hui cité comme exemple pour son agilité, son leadership, sous l’impulsion de Sa Majesté le Roi Mohammed VI, et, surtout, sa cohérence dans la prise de décision et dans l’implication de la population, à travers le Fonds spécial Covid-19 et les médias pour maintenir la confiance publique. En effet, la sécurité des Marocains a été privilégiée par rapport à toute autre considération, ce qui a permis d’accélérer la prise en main dès évènements et encadrer la prise en ...
  • Covid-19 : Nécessité d’un Etat fort et souci des libertés individuelles ?
    Authors
    Abdelhak Bassou
    April 23, 2020
    Que ne doit-on concéder de nos libertés pour être protégés du Coronavirus ? partout dans notre monde en détresse -même chez les plus libéraux- l’Etat est appelé à la rescousse, il est sollicité et, même, avec insistance. Il est le seul à pouvoir déployer les moyens nécessaires à nous sauver, et personne d’autre que lui n’est assez fort pour imposer la discipline salvatrice. Exit tous les autres acteurs, place à l’Etat. Silence et respect, le Régalien est de retour. Hobbes retrouve s ...

    April 23, 2020
    Donald Trump a mis à exécution sa menace annoncée quelques jours avant sa prise de décision. Les Etats-Unis vont suspendre leur contribution financière à l’Organisation mondiale de la Santé (OMS), alors que la pandémie de Covid-19 tue toujours des milliers de personnes quotidiennement. Dans les arguments égrenés par le président pour justifier sa position, est revenue en force la cible de l’Organisation internationale, sa mauvaise gestion de la crise Corona, son alignement sur les p ...
