Hazardous Waste In The Medinas (Historic Centres) Of Morocco, Mohamed Naciri
Revue Marocaine de Droit, d'Economie et de Gestion (Moroccan Journal of Law, Economics and Management)
Presented at the World Conference on Hazardous Wastes in Budapest in October 1987, this contribution analyses the specific and often overlooked problem of hazardous waste generated in Moroccan medinas — historic urban cores housing a dense artisanal and residential fabric whose narrow lanes (derbs) are unsuited to conventional collection systems. The author explains how the colonial dual urbanism policy neglected the environmental dimension of the medinas in favour of architectural heritage preservation, leaving growing waste collection and evacuation problems unaddressed. The analysis demonstrates that traditional artisanal activities (tanneries, dyeworks, metal workshops, bread ovens) generate hazardous liquid, solid, and gaseous effluents …

FSJES Ain Chock, Hassan II University of Casablanca
Urban Transport And Environmental Quality, Mohamed Ali Mekouar
Revue Marocaine de Droit, d'Economie et de Gestion (Moroccan Journal of Law, Economics and Management)
This research report, produced within a working group on urban transport in Casablanca, rigorously examines the interactions between motorised transport systems and urban environmental quality in a global context characterised by a vehicle fleet exceeding 400 million and rapid urbanisation. The author demonstrates that while the automobile has become a symbol of modernity and social aspiration, it is also the primary source of urban environmental degradation through air pollution (carbon monoxide, hydrocarbons, nitrogen oxides), noise nuisances, space and energy consumption, and traffic accidents. The legal analysis inventories the normative instruments available in Morocco to control the environmental impact of urban …
Solid And Liquid Waste Disposal And Environmental Law,
2026
Président de la SAEM, Morocco
Solid And Liquid Waste Disposal And Environmental Law, Abdelmalek Guessous
Revue Marocaine de Droit, d'Economie et de Gestion (Moroccan Journal of Law, Economics and Management)
This article systematically examines the problem of solid and liquid waste disposal in Morocco from an environmental law perspective, combining technical and legal analysis to identify the challenges posed by waste management in a rapidly expanding urban context. The author first classifies waste types precisely and describes modern treatment and elimination techniques deployed in the sanitation sector, including through specialised bodies such as SAEM. The legal analysis then focuses on the applicable normative framework, revealing gaps in Moroccan waste collection, treatment, and disposal regulation, the absence of a framework law on waste, and the inadequacy of civil and criminal liability …

CNCPRST, Rabat
The Legal Protection Of The Urban Environment, Khadija Kaouakib-Kadiri
Revue Marocaine de Droit, d'Economie et de Gestion (Moroccan Journal of Law, Economics and Management)
This article offers an in-depth legal analysis of the concept of the urban environment and the instruments for its protection in Morocco, within the theoretical framework of environmental law as an emerging discipline. The author starts from a rigorous definition of the concept of environment, distinguishing its natural and artificial components and highlighting the difficulties inherent in delimiting the urban environment, whose geographical, functional, and normative boundaries remain fluid and subject to doctrinal debate. The study critically inventories the Moroccan legislative and regulatory texts applicable to urban environmental protection, covering urban law, public health law, classified establishments regulation, and general …
The Legal Protection Of The Marine Environment Against Pollution Damage,

FSJES Ain Chock, Hassan II University of Casablanca
The Legal Protection Of The Marine Environment Against Pollution Damage, Mahjoub El Haiba
Revue Marocaine de Droit, d'Economie et de Gestion (Moroccan Journal of Law, Economics and Management)
This study examines the Moroccan legal framework for protecting the marine environment against pollution damage, starting from the strategic importance of Morocco's coastline extending over 3,400 km and its Exclusive Economic Zone of 188 million hectares established in 1981. The author analyses the dimensions of marine pollution, reviews the applicable national and international legal instruments — including the Montego Bay Convention and Barcelona Protocols — and reveals the inadequacy of existing civil and criminal law rules in addressing the specific characteristics of marine environmental damage, particularly regarding proof of causation, assessment of compensation, and identification of liable parties. The study …
Environmental Law Between The Maze Of The Global Dimension And The Beginnings Of Local Regulation,

Institut Agronomique et Vétérinaire Hassan II, Morocco
Environmental Law Between The Maze Of The Global Dimension And The Beginnings Of Local Regulation, Mohamed El Nassiri
Revue Marocaine de Droit, d'Economie et de Gestion (Moroccan Journal of Law, Economics and Management)
This analytical study addresses the fundamental gap between global discourse on environmental protection and the concrete reality of local legislative regulation, using Morocco as a case study. The author first surveys the risks of the global dimension of pollution — from oil tanker disasters and transboundary industrial emissions to radioactive waste leakage — citing catastrophes such as Chernobyl, ozone depletion, and climate warming to demonstrate the inadequacy of the international legal order. He then examines the nascent elements of national regulation in Morocco, evaluating the sufficiency and practical effectiveness of existing environmental texts in light of limited political will and …

FSJES Ain Chock, Hassan II University of Casablanca
Report On The Use Of Nuclear Technologies In Morocco, Mahjoub El Haiba
Revue Marocaine de Droit, d'Economie et de Gestion (Moroccan Journal of Law, Economics and Management)
This report summarises an information day organised by the Association of Engineers in Nuclear Engineering in Morocco on 13 June 1987 in Casablanca. The author traces the origins of the nuclear question, distinguishing natural from artificial radiation and reviewing the historical development of nuclear energy from the discovery of natural uranium to artificial atomic energy. He examines the catastrophic consequences of incidents such as the Chernobyl disaster, analyses the peaceful applications of nuclear technologies in Morocco (medicine, agriculture, industry, energy generation), and highlights the absence of a national law regulating this strategic sector and ensuring safety and environmental protection against …

Institut National d'Aménagement et d'Urbanisme (INAU), Morocco
Urban Planning Documents And The Environment, Abdelilah El Mekinsi
Revue Marocaine de Droit, d'Economie et de Gestion (Moroccan Journal of Law, Economics and Management)
This article offers an in-depth legal analysis of the relationship between urban planning documents and environmental protection in Morocco. Starting from a rigorous definition of the environment and its natural and artificial components, the author critically inventories the Moroccan legislative and regulatory texts applicable to urban environmental protection, covering urban law, public health law, classified establishments regulations, and general administrative policing. The study identifies the sectoral and fragmented character of existing legislation and concludes with a call for a comprehensive and coherent legal policy integrating environmental requirements into all sectoral planning and development policies, supported by effective institutions endowed with …
The Role Of National Recapitalization Funds In Sovereign Lending,
2026
European Stability Mechanism
The Role Of National Recapitalization Funds In Sovereign Lending, Elena Gabriela Olariu, Konstantina Panagopoulou Perez
Journal of Financial Crises
The Global Financial Crisis of 2007–2009 showed that a substantial portion of funds borrowed by a state from a lender of last resort may be allocated to bank recapitalization. While national recapitalization funds are not themselves borrowers, they play a key role in recovery operations. This article analyses how lenders, such as the European Stability Mechanism (ESM) and the European Financial Stability Facility (EFSF), incorporate recapitalization funds into their lending framework and how they deal with extraordinary events, such as corporate transformations or liquidation of these funds. To do this, we formulate three key principles that a lender may consider …

The Teaching Of Human Rights In The Arab World,
2026
FSJES Ain Chock, Hassan II University of Casablanca
The Teaching Of Human Rights In The Arab World, Khadija Elmadmad
Revue Marocaine de Droit, d'Economie et de Gestion (Moroccan Journal of Law, Economics and Management)
For a long time, human rights were a taboo subject in most Arab countries. Only ten Arab states have ratified the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights, and most fail to submit reports on time. No Arab country has adhered to the 1984 Convention against Torture. Despite an abundance of draft projects and declarations, no binding human rights instrument exists in the region. However, a recent trend toward promotion and teaching of human rights has emerged, with several seminars and conferences organised, including events in Cairo, Kuwait, and preparations for the 1987 World Congress on Human Rights Teaching in …

FSJES Ain Chock, Hassan II University of Casablanca
Note On The Thesis Of Mr. Mohammed El Faiz: "Economic And Agrotechnical Conceptions In The Book Of 'Nabatean Agriculture' — Research On The Origins Of Arab-Muslim Rural Thought", Mostafa Qarouach
Revue Marocaine de Droit, d'Economie et de Gestion (Moroccan Journal of Law, Economics and Management)
Mr. Mohammed El Faiz's doctoral thesis presents a vast, multidisciplinary investigation into the origins of Arab-Muslim rural thought through a close analysis of the Book of Nabatean Agriculture, an agricultural economics text from pre-Islamic Iraq compiled by Qutama in the 3rd–4th centuries. The research extends beyond agronomy to encompass history of science and technology, modes of production, farm management, human resource economics, foreign trade, and food economics. Faithful to the legacy of the late Belal A., El Faiz aims to identify the scientific heritage of Arab-Muslim civilisation and integrate it into a contemporary economic development strategy.
Administrative Control Of Public Finances: A System In Crisis,
2026
UH2C Press
Administrative Control Of Public Finances: A System In Crisis, Mustapha El Ktiri
Revue Marocaine de Droit, d'Economie et de Gestion (Moroccan Journal of Law, Economics and Management)
Administrative control of public finances is a fundamental prerogative of state authority, ensuring sound management of public funds within the framework of the separation of powers. This control serves a dual purpose: political and legal justification—ensuring respect for parliamentary authorisation regarding public revenues and expenditures—and technical or administrative justification—guaranteeing efficient financial management and good financial order. The author examines how this control system, rooted in classical theory, now faces a crisis. The analysis highlights tensions between traditional control mechanisms and contemporary challenges, questioning whether the current system remains adequate for ensuring effective public financial governance.
Stay Of Execution In Administrative Matters: Practice And Jurisprudential Policy,
2026
FSJES Ain Chock, Hassan II University of Casablanca
Stay Of Execution In Administrative Matters: Practice And Jurisprudential Policy, Mohamed Ngassi Saqout
Revue Marocaine de Droit, d'Economie et de Gestion (Moroccan Journal of Law, Economics and Management)
The stay of execution (sursis à exécution) in administrative law must be understood within its philosophical context. Any legal system rests on an ideal, and administrative law is fundamentally grounded in the principle of administration's submission to law under judicial control. Far from being mere technical questions, administrative law norms and institutions carry political and ideological meaning, seeking to balance two legitimate but contradictory demands: protecting individual rights against despotic administrative power, while safeguarding the necessary authority of the state. The author examines how jurisprudential practice navigates this tension through the stay of execution mechanism.
Forms And Modalities Of Agrarian Capitalism Development In Morocco,
2026
FSJES Ain Chock, Hassan II University of Casablanca
Forms And Modalities Of Agrarian Capitalism Development In Morocco, Abdeslam Seddiki
Revue Marocaine de Droit, d'Economie et de Gestion (Moroccan Journal of Law, Economics and Management)
Over the past two decades, Moroccan agriculture has undergone significant transformations. Its share of GDP fell from 21% (1965-70) to 12% (1980-85), while agricultural employment dropped from 58% to 40% of the active population. Agricultural exports declined from 62% to 21% of total exports, while agricultural imports remained stable at around 25%. Agriculture now accounts for 25-30% of both the trade deficit and external debt. The author presents a doctoral thesis examining these developments, analysing the forms and modalities of capitalist penetration in Moroccan agriculture, and outlining the structural changes reshaping the sector.
The Religious Character Of Divorce And Legal Separation Before The Supreme Court,
2026
FSJES Ain Chock, Hassan II University of Casablanca
The Religious Character Of Divorce And Legal Separation Before The Supreme Court, Fatna Sarehane
Revue Marocaine de Droit, d'Economie et de Gestion (Moroccan Journal of Law, Economics and Management)
Under Moroccan private international law, divorce and legal separation of foreigners in Morocco are governed by Article 9 of the D.C.C., which refers to their national law. During the Protectorate and early independence, combined with Article 394 of the former civil procedure code, this led Moroccan courts to defer jurisdiction to ecclesiastical authorities when the foreigner's personal law imposed religious formalities. Some decisions even invoked foreign public policy to justify non-competence. The author examines how this created tensions between religious requirements and secular judicial procedures, particularly concerning the distinction between substantive and formal rules.
Notes On The Budget Settlement Law,
2026
FSJES Ain Chock, Hassan II University of Casablanca
Notes On The Budget Settlement Law, Abdelkbir Fikri Fikri
Revue Marocaine de Droit, d'Economie et de Gestion (Moroccan Journal of Law, Economics and Management)
The budget settlement law is an essential mechanism for parliamentary ex-post control of public finances, providing an accounting verification and retroactive validation of the annual budget. According to Morocco's 1972 organic finance law, it certifies annual financial results and approves variances from forecasts. However, during the 1977-1983 legislature, these laws were simply ignored—despite the imperative legislative deadline requiring submission within two years following budget execution. The author attributes this to multiple factors: ministry inertia, parliamentary disinterest, and Court of Accounts disengagement. The government eventually submitted three settlement bills in April 1987 for the 1979–1981 fiscal years, though parliamentary debate remained …
Reflections On Regional Planning: The Case Of Morocco,
2026
FSJES Ain Chock, Hassan II University of Casablanca
Reflections On Regional Planning: The Case Of Morocco, Ahmed Trachen
Revue Marocaine de Droit, d'Economie et de Gestion (Moroccan Journal of Law, Economics and Management)
Regional planning constitutes a spatial economic policy, inseparable from spatial theories. Although space integration into economic analysis began in the last century, regional planning as an explicit policy only emerged after World War II. Today, it appears essential for all countries—whether developed (reducing regional disparities, environmental protection), centrally planned (curbing rural exodus, developing medium-sized towns), or less advanced (mobilising productive resources, reducing spatial inequalities). The author examines Morocco's specific challenges in this domain, highlighting how spatial planning policies must address the country's unique geographic, demographic, and economic characteristics to achieve balanced territorial development.
