Les Politiques Economiques de Relance Post-Covid-19 : Regards Croisés

June 12, 2020

Le Laboratoire d’Economie Appliquée ( LEA) de la Faculté des Sciences Juridiques Economiques et Sociales Rabat - AGDAL en partenariat avec le Policy Center for the New South, a le plaisir de vous inviter à participer à la table ronde organisée sous le thème «Les politiques économiques de relance Post Covid-19 : Regards croisés », qui se tiendra le vendredi 12 juin 2020 à 18h00 (Heure de Rabat). Les politiques économiques de gestion de la crise issue du covid-19 sont en rupture avec les pratiques antérieures. Elles sont audacieuses et révèlent au grand jour la capacité des pays, quand ils mettent en stand-by les prêts à penser- orthodoxes-, à gérer des chocs extrêmes. Il s’agit maintenant d’examiner la capacité des politiques économiques de relance post Covid-19 à l’échelle internationale et au Maroc, de saisir cet effet de révélation, de le traduire en stratégies innovantes à même de reconstruire un Maroc social inclusif et durable.

People can fall behind in terms of health, education, and living standards, with challenges including lack of access to drinking water, sanitation, adequate nutrition, or primary education.

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 ...

    La géopolitique du Moyen-Orient connaît aujourd’hui des changements structurels: l’ordre régional est en transition, dans le sillage des printemps arabes, qui ont ébranlé la gouvernance autoritaire et libéré la compétition de puissance, sur fond de retrait américain. Cette nouvelle course à la domination régionale remet en cause la hiérarchie traditionnelle des puissances, essentiellement fondée sur la capacité militaire et le jeu des alliances extérieures. L’économie, jusque-là gar ...

    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 ...
