Education and economic growth - The role of educational policy in Morocco

All theoretical works conclude that education has a positive impact on the growth rate. Empirical works, however, which are less affirmative, show oth erwise and lead us to characterize the nature of this relationship more car efully. It is impossible to give an account of this relationship without en tering into the details of institutional configurations. On that basis, we have chosen to develop and enrich the analysis by exclusively considering t he case of Morocco. Morocco. The model was evaluated from 1976 to 1995 and temporal series confirm the positive effect of education (especially primar y) on growth. Moreover, the model allows for the updating of certain nation al characteristics and the examination of the link between educational poli cy in Morocco and economic growth.
