Abstract:Several similarities explain the spread of
the Arab revolutionary process: the polarization of economies to limited
sectors, a rentier-based management of resources, very low employment rates and
extremely high rates of skilled migration. Finally, a similar external pact
with the Western powers, and an inner pact between elites that have both
imploded. This article suggests new directions for these economies that would
combine regional integration and a catch-up strategy via service activities.
