Tunisie post-25 Juillet : De la démocratie à la dictature

Des candidats aux présidentielles sont arrêtés. L’Instance supérieure indépendante pour les élections (Isie) rejette en masse les candidatures, avant de se faire désavouer par le Tribunal administratif. Mais en dépit de toute légalité, voici que l’ISIE ne reconnaît pas le verdict sans appel du Tribunal administratif. Pis : l’un des candidats rescapés est même arrêté. Voici donc que la flagrante dérive dictatoriale prend des allures tragicomiques. Après une spectaculaire transition démocratique, la chute de la Tunisie vers un régime autocratique est brutale.

The July 25th Path, Democracy, and Dictatorship in Tunisia

Following one of the world’s most dramatic democratic transitions since the early 1990s, Tunisia’s descent into personalist rule has been equally stark. Although Kais Saied’s accumulation of power bears similarities to executive aggrandizement in other parts of the world, Saied’s regime is atypical in other ways that may be telling of the president’s assets and liabilities as he and his opposition navigate the first presidential elections since the coup.
