Opis

L'Économie Sociale et Solidaire au Maroc" shows that the SSE, heir to mutual aid practices (touiza, jmaâ, waqf) and with its 24,000 cooperatives and 130,000 associations, offers an alternative to the unequal growth model. It starts with the facts: high unemployment, regional disparities, climatic stress. A mapping of the players, a SWOT analysis and a fragmented legal assessment precede a critical study of public policies (INDH, Plan Maroc Vert, advanced regionalization). The author draws on international comparisons (France, Quebec, Catalonia, Senegal) to shed light on the challenges of governance, financing and impact assessment. Case studies (agro-ecology, women's crafts, renewable energies, solidarity finance) illustrate the contribution of the SSE to the creation of decent jobs, the inclusion of women and young people, and the ecological transition. Through its territorial roots, the SSE aligns Morocco with the Sustainable Development Goals. The conclusion outlines a roadmap: a unified framework law, an observatory, modern local windows, responsible markets and an African Forum, to make Morocco a center of excellence and put the UN's SDGs on a firm footing.
