An Analysis Of The Law On The Prohibition Of Fraud In Goods, Samira Krourou
Revue Marocaine de Droit, d'Economie et de Gestion (Moroccan Journal of Law, Economics and Management)
One of the most important aspects of consumer protection is the fight against fraud in goods—a form of protection enshrined in the Abrahamic religions long before the enactment of positive laws or the emergence of consumer advocacy movements that spread from the United States to Europe and the rest of the world. While fraud in general is indicative of a malicious tendency to infringe upon rights, spread corruption, and undermine interests, fraud involving goods and food is an even more heinous and dangerous crime because it affects the health and lives of both humans and animals. Therefore, it was necessary …

Provisions On The Obligation Of Conformity In A Sales Contract: General Rules Vs. Specific Legislation, Sabah Benkaddour
Revue Marocaine de Droit, d'Economie et de Gestion (Moroccan Journal of Law, Economics and Management)
Moroccan legislation has been influenced by the concept of quality since the country’s accession to the World Trade Organization, through the reinforcement of the obligation of conformity between the seller and the buyer, in order to ensure that products comply with recognized safety and health standards. Moroccan law has addressed this obligation in its general provisions (the Dahir on Obligations and Contracts) and in specific laws, such as the Consumer Protection Law, which allows the buyer to seek compensation when the seller breaches the obligation of conformity and the warranty of quality.

Revue Marocaine de Droit, d'Economie et de Gestion (Moroccan Journal of Law, Economics and Management)
This article examines the influence of informal actors on tax decision-making in Morocco, highlighting that this process is not limited to official institutions but is also shaped by the involvement of national and international actors who play influential roles in guiding tax policy. The article demonstrates that international financial institutions, foremost among them the International Monetary Fund and the World Bank, have played a prominent role in guiding tax reforms—particularly within the framework of structural adjustment programs—by linking financial support to the implementation of reforms aimed at improving the efficiency of the tax system.

General Reflections On The Seminar On Constitutionalism In Africa, Abdelali Doumou
Revue Marocaine de Droit, d'Economie et de Gestion (Moroccan Journal of Law, Economics and Management)
This paper presents reflections from a seminar on constitutionalism in Africa held in Harare (22–25 May), organized by ACLS, SAPES, and AAPS. The author, Abdelali Doumou, reports on debates involving jurists, political scientists, historians, and economists. A major conclusion was that constitutionalism remains a project to be built across Africa, regardless of regime type. Two approaches explain this: an institutionalist approach identifies normative deficits, autocratic constitutions, and weak institutionalization, while a socio-economic approach argues that beyond state form, political clientelism, corruption, power personalization, and militarization undermine constitutionalism. The seminar concluded that the essence, not merely the form, of the African …

Human Rights In Africa: Banjul Workshop And Seminar (November 1989), Khadija Elmadmad
Revue Marocaine de Droit, d'Economie et de Gestion (Moroccan Journal of Law, Economics and Management)
This paper reports on a training workshop and seminar on human and peoples' rights held in Banjul, Gambia, in November 1989. The author, Khadija Elmadmad, notes that despite nearly three decades of independence for most African states, human rights violations remain widespread across the continent. The entry into force of the African Charter on Human and Peoples' Rights in 1986 and the establishment of the African Commission on Human Rights in 1987 were significant milestones, but effective protection remains a distant goal. The workshop and seminar, organized by the African Association of International Law with support from Scandinavian countries and …

Gorman focuses on the Second International Conference on Assistance to Refugees in Africa (ICARA II), examining actions, obstacles, and the roles of international, governmental, and non-governmental organizations, …

Maritime Wrecks In Moroccan Law, Farid Hatimy
Revue Marocaine de Droit, d'Economie et de Gestion (Moroccan Journal of Law, Economics and Management)
This paper examines the concept of maritime wrecks under Moroccan law, exploring its relationship with property rights, maritime navigation safety, fishing industry, and marine environment protection. The author, Farid Hatimy, addresses the challenge posed by the absence of a legal definition of "wreck" and confusion with similar concepts. The paper identifies three categories of maritime wrecks under Moroccan dahirs of 1916 and 1923, including shipwrecks in their broadest sense. The author notes that maritime wrecks derive their specific character from the location of discovery, except for shipwrecks, which are considered maritime wrecks even beyond Morocco's maritime public domain boundaries.

The Intangibility Of Colonial Borders And State Territory In Africa, Abdelmoughit Benmessaoud
Revue Marocaine de Droit, d'Economie et de Gestion (Moroccan Journal of Law, Economics and Management)
This paper examines the principle of intangibility of colonial borders and its implications for state territory in Africa. The author, Abdelmoughit Benmessaoud, argues that despite globalization, technological progress, and the trend toward territorial enlargement in Europe, the question of borders and their fixity remains highly relevant in the African context. The study emphasizes that borders and state sovereignty, paradoxically, still have a future in Africa. The research is significant because intangibility touches on a vital aspect of state existence. The author suggests that a new approach to interpreting intangibility will be crucial for the future evolution of African states and …

This paper reviews the twenty-fifth volume of the Annuaire de l'Afrique du Nord (published in 1988), which is devoted to the theme of housing under the title "Housing, State and Society in the Maghreb." The author, Mohamed Mouaqit, summarizes studies covering Algeria, Tunisia, and Morocco, organized around four sub-themes: housing policies, urban housing and land rights, production and practices of inhabited space, and housing in rural social transformations. The review highlights that all contributors agree on the lack of effectiveness of state action, poor prioritization, and the failure to connect housing policy to broader development strategies. The volume underscores the …

Revue Marocaine de Droit, d'Economie et de Gestion (Moroccan Journal of Law, Economics and Management)
This paper examines the concept of maritime wrecks under Moroccan law, addressing the high number of shipwrecks and ancient wrecks found along Morocco's maritime public domain. The author, Farid Hatimy, highlights the concentration of wrecks near major ports, coastal capes, and other hazardous areas, posing risks to navigation, marine environment, and public health. The paper notes that wrecks often occupy port public domain, remain unmarked, and result from adverse weather, international hostilities, or human negligence. The author emphasizes the difficulty posed by the absence of a legal definition of "wreck" and the confusion with similar concepts, aiming to clarify the …

Political Struggle, Mohamed Ghomari
Revue Marocaine de Droit, d'Economie et de Gestion (Moroccan Journal of Law, Economics and Management)
This paper examines the concept of political struggle as a fundamental characteristic of any society with organized political power. The author, Mohamed Ghomari, defines political struggle as confrontation between opposing forces over the control of power and the modification of social relations, particularly the command-obedience dynamic. The paper identifies two dominant forms of political struggle: class struggle, drawing on Marx and Engels' assertion that all history is the history of class conflict, and struggle between individuals or groups vying for power or its preservation. The analysis explores whether such struggle manifests as latent or open conflict, potentially ending in class …

Islam, Orientalism, And Social Sciences: The Berquian Approach, Mohamed Mouaqit
Revue Marocaine de Droit, d'Economie et de Gestion (Moroccan Journal of Law, Economics and Management)
This paper examines the epistemological challenges of orientalism through the lens of the Berquian approach. The author, Mohamed Mouaqit, explores the dual relationship inherent in orientalism: the researcher's relationship to their object of study, and the relationship between cultures. The paper questions whether orientalism can claim scientific status in the social sciences while being situated within an intercultural dynamic shaped by power imbalances. The author contrasts the position of the orientalist, who possesses an "excentric" distance from the studied society, with that of the researcher studying their own society. The paper engages with debates on whether orientalism constitutes a distinct …

Is The Surviving Spouse A Reserved Heir In Moroccan Law?, Mohamed Chafi
Revue Marocaine de Droit, d'Economie et de Gestion (Moroccan Journal of Law, Economics and Management)
This paper examines whether the surviving spouse qualifies as a reserved heir under Moroccan personal status law, which is inspired by Islamic jurisprudence. The author, Mohamed Chafi, explains that Moroccan law grants hereditary rights to the surviving spouse despite the complete separation of patrimonies during marriage. Spouses are classified among the "fard" heirs—those entitled to mandatory fixed shares, including one-half, one-quarter, one-eighth, two-thirds, or one-sixth of the estate. However, the paper highlights that while reciprocal inheritance rights exist between spouses, equality in distribution is not guaranteed, as the law maintains male privilege in accordance with the Quranic rule.

Information Law, Ahmed Hidass
Revue Marocaine de Droit, d'Economie et de Gestion (Moroccan Journal of Law, Economics and Management)
This paper examines the evolving scope of information law in response to the proliferation of media over the past three decades. The author, Ahmed Hidass, explores how the term "information" has expanded from its ordinary meaning—the act of gathering and disseminating knowledge—to encompass judicial procedures, scientific applications (including cybernetics and computing), and the broader field of communication. The paper highlights the conceptual confusion arising from the overlap between "information" and "communication," particularly influenced by the Anglo-Saxon school of media studies. The author defines information as the publication of knowledge or judgments through words, sounds, images, or any intelligible signs accessible …
