Prospects for Pluralism Post-Arab Spring: Does Tunisia suggest a way forward?
Across the Middle East and North Africa, initial gains from the 2011 Arab Spring have been eroded by instability, violence and a return to repressive practices of former regimes. In some cases, the situation is now more volatile than it was before the Arab Spring.
In this context, Tunisia appears to be the sole Arab spring country to have emerged as a potential success story so far. While still quite fragile, does Tunisia’s experience indicate a way forward for other states in the region and beyond?
Join Global Centre for Pluralism on October 22, 2015, in person or via webcast, as former Prime Minister of Tunisia, His Excellency Mehdi Jomaa and Vice-President for Studies at Carnegie Endowment for International Peace, Dr. Marwan Muasher explore these issues, along with Dr. Bessma Momani of the University of Waterloo.
