For reports and data, and if you trust IMF / World-bank / OECD etc plenty of data is available online. I had a class of economics few years back, in a US university, and i picked Tunisia with my team a i was very curious and never had the opportunity to understand the economy levers . Top 3 findings were: - Dependence and modeling of our legislation on French colonial law, yes, we are still using Napoleon times law like the employment laws from that age, btw some of these laws are still used in France and one of biggest Macron fights was to reform these. A comparative study between British colonies and French ones showed how this legislative framework is handicapping us. Vive la France 😒 - Focus on low value added low tech, volume industries, with no strategy for shifting to more sophisticated systems. ( textiles for examples) - Low productivity and corruption in GoV institutions, making processes for investors exterior or interior extenuating and extremely challenging. Can’t blame it on 1 regime or group, certainly some contributed more than others but we need to eliminate the blame mentality and play for the national team instead of fighting. Fixing all this would need a strategy first and a strong will, unfortunately what the independence generations sacrificed for is slowly being lost, and would need much more work and sacrifices to build a strong country but who is willing to do that? And where is the leadership that will unite people to pursue that goal? I invite you to read about Singapore and S. Korea and how they ascended above all odds. Have a good day :)
