Souveraineté économique et capitalisme de dissidence au Maroc. Jouer les conflits politiques dans la discrétion

This article explores two mechanisms that were introduced on independence to give effect to claims to economic sovereignty: the implementation of compensation agreements from 1955, and the nationalisation of agricultural exports after the state of emergency was declared in 1965. It focuses on Ahmed Benkirane, who was a key player during this period, and highlights the contentious nature of the ways economic sovereignty was asserted in Morocco by analyzing the notion of “capitalism of dissent” (that is, the integration of dissident economic modes of action into government methods).
