Abstract

This article analyzes Morocco’s experience of cooperation with the industrialized countries of the North in the broader context of North-South relations. It examines the political and economic logic of cooperation after independence, paying particular attention to aid, technical assistance, trade relations, and the risks of dependency associated with unequal partnerships. The author argues that cooperation can support development only if it is aligned with national priorities and preserves political and economic sovereignty. The paper therefore presents cooperation as both an opportunity and a field of strategic tension for developing countries.
