Mais au-delà de la fermeture transitoire des frontières, la crise sanitaire, doublée de la crise économique qui se laisse déjà ressentir en Espagne, aura un fort impact sur un million de ressortissants marocains résidant en Espagne. Au 1er janvier 2019 (derniers chiffres officiels disponibles), leur nombre était de 8 ...

    A feeling of collective insanity has overtaken the world since the Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-2019) emerged in Wuhan, China. The virus—more lethal than influenza—was initially treated lightly by the West. This approach showed the lack of preparedness of many countries in dealing with the epidemics we are currently facing. Instead of implementing immediate measures to deal with the challenges imposed, some political and business leaders started labeling COVID-19 as the Chinese v ...

    Alors que le monde est depuis quelques mois confronté à l’une des plus graves crises sanitaires du siècle, l’Afrique semblait en être jusque-là épargnée. Les pays du continent n’avaient alors annoncé que très peu de cas, une dizaine pour certains et aucun pour d’autres. Cependant, à mesure que le temps passe, l’Afrique se trouve avec de plus en plus de cas, d’abord exportés d’Europe et d’Amérique résultant ensuite en une contamination locale. Ce n’est pas la seule crise sanitaire à ...

    March 20, 2020
    L'épidémie de coronavirus vient encore davantage affaiblir les économies du golfe de Guinée déjà particulièrement fragilisées par un secteur pétrolier localement en crise depuis plusieurs années. La rapide baisse des cours va mettre à nouveau à rude épreuve des systèmes qui ne parviennent pas à se réinventer et à se diversifier afin de se prémunir des travers souvent constatés au sein des Etats rentiers. Outre l'impact économique, ce sont également les potentielles difficultés d'ord ...

    For a second, the uniformed officer looked threatening. He followed me. When I reached the stairs leading to my Transavia flight to Paris, he stepped in front of me, asking, “Sir, may I talk to you for a second?” Did he suspect I was smuggling precious Islamic art or some cannabis, the popular Kif? “When are you returning to Marrakech,” the customs officer inquired. “In four days”, I replied. “Perfect,” was his reaction. “May I ask you to buy in a French pharmacy the drugs mentioned ...

    Le mouvement des femmes marocaines est issu de l’histoire récente de la société depuis la période précoloniale.
