Sectorial policies and structural transformation

Au-delà de la gestion immédiate de la crise, qui concentre légitimement l’attention à ce jour, l’enjeu actuel consiste également de mener des réflexions sur les politiques publiques, économiques et sociales que les pays devront mettre en place comme stratégies pour remettre à niveau leurs économies. Cela suppose une réflexion projetée sur une période après la crise qui vise à conduire une redéfinition plus large des politiques publiques et de leurs priorités.

    “The debate on the viability of industrial policy design based on the fragmentation of global value chains, from a cost optimization perspective, did not arise first in the wake of the Covid-19 crisis but was present long before. This industrial policy design was justified by the great development of logistics and transport across the world’s industrial clusters, which allowed just-in-time manufacturing to become the main adopted production model. However, the disruption of logistic ...

    La succession des chocs pandémique, climatique et géopolitique a éprouvé les économies africaines. Les liens commerciaux et financiers avec le monde ne sont plus seulement considérés comme des moteurs de performance, mais aussi comme des sources potentielles de vulnérabilité. La défiance à l’égard de la mondialisation s’est accrue. Parce qu’elle est venue souligner la dépendance du continent, le dérèglement de ses rapports à la nature et sa vulnérabilité face aux tensions géopolitiq ...

Nearly 90% of this spending was by developed economies, with the rest by emerging market and developing eco ...
