Politics of Morocco

The politics of Morocco are conducted within the framework of a semi-constitutional monarchy, characterized by a parliamentary system and a multi-party structure. The prime minister is the head of government.

Executive power is exercised by the government, while legislative power is vested in the Parliament of Morocco, which consists of two chambers: the Assembly of Representatives and the Assembly of Councillors. The Constitution of Morocco provides for a monarchy alongside a parliament and an independent judiciary.

On 17 June 2011, KingMohammed VI announced a series of constitutional reforms aimed at strengthening democratic institutions and expanding the powers of elected bodies.

The Economist Intelligence Unit rated Morocco a "hybrid regime" in 2022. However, Morocco has been considered a "closed autocracy", according to the V-Dem Democracy Indices, since the end of the 18th century.
