The Rise and Fall of Tunisian Democracy: Populism, Polarization, and the Perils of Power-Sharing
The Rise and Fall of Tunisian Democracy: Populism, Polarization, and the Perils of Power-Sharing is a talks & classes event at Encina Hall in Palo Alto on Wednesday, November 4 at 4:00 PM.
About this event
After the Arab Spring, Tunisia emerged as the one success story to transition to democracy, winning a Nobel Peace Prize in 2015 for its focus on inclusion and power-sharing. How, then, did its democracy collapse in 2021? Drawing on unique interviews with senior Tunisian officials, alongside three nationally representative surveys of the population, The Rise and Fall of Tunisian Democracy points to an overemphasis on compromise, consensus, and power-sharing.
