Au début de 2011, en chassant du pouvoir un dictateur vieillissant, la Tunisie a été propulsée sur la scène médiatique internationale. Initiateur des «printemps arabes», ce petit pays donnait pourtant l'image d'un régime stable, certes dirigé par un despote, mais ouvert sur l'Occident. Cependant, la question de la succession du président Ben Ali amenait certains auteurs à s'interroger sur la durabilité d'un pouvoir largement fondé sur la coercition. Ce livre apporte des clés pour comprendre la manière dont le régime autoritaire tunisien s'est construit, puis pérennisé, et a été remis en cause. Si le système politique instauré par le président Bourguiba (1956-1987) était sous-tendu par un projet de société modernisateur, celui du président Ben Ali (1987-2011) visait à transformer le pouvoir en un instrument d'accumulation de richesses économiques au profit d'un clan familial. La rupture introduite par la «révolution» de 2011 a ouvert la voie à un nouveau cycle politique.

In the tumultuous aftermath of the Arab uprisings, Tunisia charted a unique path that has earned it praise as 'a beacon of hope' in a troubled region. Since the 2011 revolution, it has embraced a new culture of democracy, based on pluralism, civilian rule and the peaceful transfer of power. Equally noteworthy are the country's burgeoning civil society, its various institutional reforms and its progressive new constitution, which upholds individual freedoms and champions women's rights. But in spite of these achievements, daunting challenges remain. Although Tunisia has succeeded in defusing many crises, its transition has been uneasy; its democracy is fragile and its future continues to be uncertain. As the country emerges from decades of authoritarian rule, it faces enormous political, social, economic and security challenges, which are undermining its peaceful evolution. It is this state of fragility that 'A Fledgling Democracy' seeks to capture. Focusing on the socio-political dynamics that have unfolded in this North African nation since the revolution, the contributors to this volume shed light on how Tunisia has navigated its first decade of democratic transition, and reflect on what the ongoing changes and challenges mean for the country today
