The chapters in this book imply a way forward for the direction of economic policy in the Middle East and North Africa. This chapter summarizes three main conclusions from the evidence compiled in the book. First, more research needs to be done using innovative social data collection techniques to better understand how institutions and incentives can be reordered to better foster youth inclusion under post–Arab Spring regimes. Second, several areas of major policy reform are highlighted using the evidence compiled in this book. Third, the most important area of future reforms lies in small-scale social innovation that can help foster dynamic policy responses to the challenges young people will continue to face even as the political economy landscape continues to shift.Less
