حينما تحجب السياسة استقاللية القضاء الجنوب إفريقي

Mondialisation oblige, les frontières se trouveront en tête des préoccupations mondiales en temps de pandémie. Un dilemme se pose entre : - D’une part, le souci, pour chaque pays, de se protéger contre la dissémination du virus provenant des pays les plus touchés ; - d’autre part, le souci de préserver l’ouverture aux autres Etats du monde, nécessaire à la survie de l’économie en raison de l’interdépendance accentuée par la mondialisation. La circulation des personnes, fonction p ...

The COVID-19 pandemic threatens to wreak more havoc in developing countries than in developed countries, because of the crumbling healthcare systems and infrastructures in the former, their inadequate budgetary resources, shallow financial systems, and weak government authority and capability. This impact has not yet shown up in cross-country data, possibly reflecting extensive under-reporting and/or less testing for COVID-19 done in developing countries. Policymakers in these count ...

La crise sanitaire du Covid-19 a montré plusieurs fragilités et limites du système économique mondial. En plus de son impact très négatif sur l’économie, cette crise a des impacts sociaux très inégaux et qui varient d’une couche sociale à une autre. Elle a un impact dévastateur sur les ménages pauvres qui n’ont pas suffisamment d’épargne et de ressources financières et ceux ayant des emplois vulnérables[1]. Si le télétravail est une option pour certains, ce n’est pas le cas pour plu ...

الهزات التي تطرأ بين الحين والآخر في أي مجتمع، تقاس بها متانة مؤسسات الدولة والمجتمع على السواء في مواجهة الأزمات. وإذا عرفت مؤسسات الدولة استمرارية في تاريخ المغرب، فإن تفاعل المجتمع المغربي مع ظاهرة الأوبئة قد اختلف بمقدار اختلاف الظروف السياسية، من حيث تقاطع الوباء مع ضعف السلطة المركزية أو قوتها، وبارتباط الأوبئة والأمراض بالقحوط والمجاعات. وتحتضن الخزانة المغربية متونا عديدة ومتنوعة، سواء من حيث تعرضها للأمراض والأوبئة بطريقة مباشرة، أو بطريقة غير مباشرة. وبحكم موقع المغرب من ا ...

Moroccans, like the citizens of other democratic countries in times of peace, have learned to take for granted some fundamental rights, including the freedom of movement and assembly. In the attempt to contain the spread of COVID-19, it has suddenly become evident to them that the enjoyment of these rights can be limited. This paper enquires about the compatibility of the state of health emergency proclaimed by the government and approved by the parliament in March 23, 2020 with Mo ...

Born and raised in Romania, but of Hungarian ethnicity Scarlett Varga is since January 2020 the head of development at Bruegel. In other words, she is in charge of the fundraising strategy of this leading European economics think tank, launched in 2005 in Brussels. Her position is highly strategic, as she is member of the organisations’ management and contributes to a 6 million Euros yearly budget, safeguarding Bruegel’s core values of   independence and transparency. Leading a te ...

As with the rest of the World, the impact of COVID-19 in Kenya has stretched beyond the sphere of healthcare and the spread of the actual virus, as economic development outcomes are expected to be seriously affected by the disruption caused both globally and locally. In fact, one of the working hypotheses of the impact of COVID-19 on African nations is that the substantive impact of the virus on livelihoods will occur less from health-related issues than the economic shock, disrupt ...

We are all deeply saddened by the threat the COVID-19 disease poses to our health and way of life. But I am confident the coordinated actions of world leaders will minimize the hardships on the less fortunate and the elderly, and restore our economies. This event has a finite end. As Albert Einstein once said: “in the middle of difficulty lies opportunity.” Those words have never been more relevant. Can the COVID-19 outbreak be such an opportunity? Without diminishing the severity ...
