It is based on a survey realized by a team of French and Moroccan researchers. It discusses the conditions of the location of the French carmaker, at the crossroads of its internationalisation strategy and of the industrialization policy of the Moroccan government for the Northern country. It studies the impact of this location on the supplier industry and on local employment, underlining the limits in terms of industrial development. Presently, it is more an agglomeration of automotive activities rather than a true integrated industrial cluster. | | Keyword(s): | AUTOMOBILE INDUSTRY, FREE ZONE, INDUSTRIALISATION, MOROCCO, REGIONAL DEVELOPMENT, RENAULT, TANGIER | | Auteur(s) : | BENABDEJLIL Nadia, LUNG Yannick, PIVETEAU Alain | | JEL Class.: | F23, L52, L62, O14, R11, R23 | Télécharger le cahier Retour à la liste des Cahier du GRETHA (2016) |
