Validity Study of NIE 71-55:
Probable Developments in French North Africa
(insofar as it pertained to Morocco),
published 29 November 1955
NIE 71-55 (published 29 November 1955) failed to estimate
accurately the rapidity with which Morocco would achieve its
independence. France was compelled to make concessions during
the past year which NIE 71-55 had not anticipated. However, the
NIE correctly predicted that serious difficulties would arise over
definition of Morocco's independence within a "framework of
interdependence. "
