| Summary: | Algeria, Morocco and Tunisia experienced important economic and political crises in the last two decades. Using the notions of inclusion and exclusion, the author examines how the three governments reacted to these crises. Whereas Tunisia narrowed the political sphere while widening the economic one, Algeria enacted an all-inclusive albeit unmanageable political opening and economic reforms with exclusionary effects. Morocco reacted by graduated political inclusion which was accompanied by an increasing economic exclusion. The arguments are based on the socio-economic data available by the summer of 1999, observation of the formal and informal levels of the political process, field observations, and interviews conducted in the last five years.
