Abstract
The degree of women's emancipation in any society is an irreversible indicator of its level of development—perhaps more telling than GDP or energy consumption. In Morocco, the evolution of women's economic role is intrinsically linked to broader social and cultural transformations. Though women constitute nearly half the population, they remain a political minority. Yet their social role is culturally crucial, as they primarily raise children and transmit values to future generations. The author argues that examining women's economic participation—both past and present—reveals how their position, recognised aptitudes, and limitations shape Morocco's development trajectory.
