Abstract This article draws on the existing literature to critically analyse the issue of youth unemployment in Morocco. The author argues that youth unemployment policy has to be understood in the context of neoliberalism and its austerity policies, as youth unemployment can never be overcome while the state keeps decreasing public expenditure and privatising public resources. And more importantly, it is the World Bank and other international development agencies that design and control models of development, establishing rankings, metrics, norms, and best practices of development in Morocco. They look at the Global South through their eyes rather than through local eyes. These models, unsuitable for the realities of the Global South, have always resulted in a distorted development model, due to the failure to take into consideration the conditions of the Global South's societies, cultures, and history.

全球南方青年失业和不适合的发展模式的现实：来自摩洛哥的证据

摘要 本文借鉴现有文献，对摩洛哥青年失业问题进行批判性分析。作者认为，必须在新自由主义及其紧缩政策的背景下理解青年失业政策，因为当国家不断减少公共支出和将公共资源私有化时，青年失业永远无法克服。更重要的是，是世界银行和其他国际发展机构设计和控制发展模式，在摩洛哥建立排名、指标、规范和最佳发展实践。他们通过自己的眼睛而不是通过当地的眼睛来看待全球南方。这些模式不适合全球南方的现实，总是导致发展模式扭曲，
