Les politiques alimentaires au Maghreb et leurs conséquences sur les sociétés agropastorales

Véronique Alary and Mohammed El Mou rid — Food policies in North Africa and their consequences on agro-pastoral societies. Until the adoption of liberalization policies from the 1980's, Algeria, Morocco and Tunisia have favoured a policy of food self-sufficiency based on economic planning and public control of networks. Despite all this, the external food dependency went on increasing during all the period. With liberalization of exchanges, governments stress a concept of food security based on the satisfaction of the needs of the population through local and imported products. What are the consequences of this evolution on livestock systems and on agro-pastoral societies in the steppe areas of Maghreb ?Alary Véronique, El Mourid Mohammed.
