The Dialectics of Climate Change and Food Security in Morocco and Egypt: An Essay to Monitoring Future Features

This research paper examines the dialectic of climate change and food security in Morocco and Egypt, by exploring the future features of this dialectic. The paper attempted to link the issue to the impact of neoliberal state activity, which has accelerated climate fragility and the loss of human security, making the two countries facing real risks associated with rising food prices and the decline in the value of the national currency. It is expected that the food security challenge will increase in the context of successive periods of drought and the contraction of the national economy due to the implementation of structural adjustment programs, increasing dependency, and exposure to neoliberal agricultural policies. This requires radical changes in food provision policies and ensuring its quality and sustainability in the future, in anticipation of the possibility of "renewed" social unrest associated with the climate emergency and food crises in the future.

This research paper examines the dialectic of climate change and food security in Morocco and Egypt, by exploring the future features of this dialectic. The paper attempted to link the issue to the impact of neoliberal state activity, which has accelerated climate fragility and the loss of human security, making the two countries facing real risks associated with rising food prices and the decline in the value of the national currency. It is expected that the food security challenge will increase in the context of successive periods of drought and the contraction of the national economy due to the implementation of structural adjustment programs, increasing dependency, and exposure to neoliberal agricultural policies. This requires radical changes in food provision policies and ensuring its quality and sustainability in the future, in anticipation of the possibility of "renewed" social unrest associated with the climate emergency and food crises in the future.
