Abstract

Based on the social accounting matrix of the Tunisian economy, this study provides an analytical framework for analyzing the impact of sectoral economic policies on job creation. The aim is to identify some strategic axes for public policies. The analytical framework is built on a Walrassian computable general equilibrium model by taking into account the role of the government, an agent able of influencing the decisions of private agents (by incentive or by intervention) according to public objectives of growth, stabilization, etc. In this framework, we have been able to simulate and analyze the effect of a set of instruments called economic policy.
