ABSTRACT This paper presents an economic analysis of the health and medical sector in Tunisia. After reviewing the structure of investment and recurrent expenditure policy over the first planning decade, it analyzes the effectiveness with which resources are allocated in the health system. It provides a theoretical framcwork for the analysis of medical referral systems as well as an analysis of (1) the pattern of demand for medical services, (2) the operating characteristics of Tunisia's medical referral system, (3) the causes of capacity underutilization in hospitals and (4) the incidence of government medical expenditure. Finally, the paper evaluates Tunisia's medical manpower strategy. 10. CONTROL NUMBER 11. PRICE OF DOCUMENT PN-AAB- / 40 12. DESCRIPTORS 13.

Medical re­ sources---infrastructure and manpower--were in scarce supply and maidis­ tributed between the urban and rural areas. Between 1962 and 1971, Tunisia's government pursued policies to quantitatively and qualitatively expand the capacity of its medical and health system. This required sub­ stantial increases in the level of recurrent and investmaent expenditure, and measures to improve the allocative efficiency of the medical sy-tem. Many of these policies appeared highly innovative. Thu medical profes­ sion was "socialized." A network for rural dispensaries, staffed by physicians, was established. Fees for medical services were virtually eliminated. The problems Tunisia faced are not uacommon among otner develop­ ing countries. Since its policies are similar to those urged on the health planners of other LDCs, it is useful to evaluate their impact and efficacy. Did Tunisia's expanded health efforts remedy the peiceived structural inadequacies? Does the "referral pyramid" of medical and health institutiuns represent an efficient allocation of Tunisia's scarce medical and financial resources? In this paper we shall examine the structure of Tunisia's policies and of its medical and health system, and attempt to appraise whether they have been allocatively efficient and distributionally equitable. This requires two types of analysis. First, Tunisia's health policies over the decade must be described and examined for their impact on the structure of the medical and health system. -2- Secondly, an analysis must be made of the market for the medical services of the public sector. Is there efficiency in the production

  • Quelques Aspects Problematiques Dans La Transcription Des Toponymes Tunisiens
    QUELQUES ASPECTS PROBLEMATIQUES DANS LA TRANSCRIPTION DES TOPONYMES TUNISIENS Mohsen DHIEB Professeur de géographie (cartographie) Laboratoire SYFACTE FLSH de Sfax TUNISIE [email protected] Introduction Quelle que soit le pays ou la langue d’usage, la transcription toponymique des noms de lieux géographiques sur un atlas ou un autre document cartographique en particulier ou tout autre document d’une façon générale pose problème notamment dans des pays où il n’y a pas de tradition ou de « politique » toponymique. Il en est de même pour les contrées « ouvertes » à l’extérieur et par conséquent ayant subi ou subissant encore les influences linguistiques étrangères ou alors dans des régions caractérisées par la complexité de leur situation linguistique. C’est particulièrement le cas de la Tunisie, pays méditerranéen bien « ancré » dans l’histoire, mais aussi bien ouvert à l’étranger et subissant les soubresauts de la mondialisation, et manquant par ailleurs cruellement de politique toponymique. Tout ceci malgré l’intérêt que certains acteurs aux profils différents y prêtent depuis peu, intérêt matérialisé, entre autres manifestations scientifiques, par l’organisation de deux rencontres scientifiques par la Commission du GENUING en 2005 et d’une autre août 2008 à Tunis, lors du 35ème Congrès de l’UGI. Aussi, il s’agit dans le cadre de cette présentation générale de la situation de la transcription toponymique en Tunisie, dans un premier temps, de dresser l’état des lieux, de mettre en valeur les principales difficultés rencontrées en manipulant les noms géographiques dans leurs différentes transcriptions dans un second temps. En troisième lieu, il s’agit de proposer à l’officialisation, une liste-type de toponymes (exonymes et endonymes) que l’on est en droit d’avoir par exemple sur une carte générale de Tunisie à moyenne échelle.

  • Nostalgias in Modern Tunisia Dissertation
    Images of the Past: Nostalgias in Modern Tunisia Dissertation Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By David M. Bond, M.A. Graduate Program in Near Eastern Languages and Cultures The Ohio State University 2017 Dissertation Committee: Sabra J. Webber, Advisor Johanna Sellman Philip Armstrong Copyrighted by David Bond 2017 Abstract The construction of stories about identity, origins, history and community is central in the process of national identity formation: to mould a national identity – a sense of unity with others belonging to the same nation – it is necessary to have an understanding of oneself as located in a temporally extended narrative which can be remembered and recalled. Amid the “memory boom” of recent decades, “memory” is used to cover a variety of social practices, sometimes at the expense of the nuance and texture of history and politics. The result can be an elision of the ways in which memories are constructed through acts of manipulation and the play of power. This dissertation examines practices and practitioners of nostalgia in a particular context, that of Tunisia and the Mediterranean region during the twentieth and early twenty-first centuries. Using a variety of historical and ethnographical sources I show how multifaceted nostalgia was a feature of the colonial situation in Tunisia notably in the period after the First World War. In the postcolonial period I explore continuities with the colonial period and the uses of nostalgia as a means of contestation when other possibilities are limited.

By examining typical heat consumer profiles in Tunisia, the analysis compares three different solar thermal technologies that can be used to replace conventional heat supply technologies and lead to fossil fuel savings. Simulations for different geographical locations are compiled and then compared to economic boundary conditions. A comprehensive sensitivity analysis enables the evaluation of the effect of changes in framework conditions (such as changes in subsidy, technology costs, fuel prices) on the profitability of solar thermal systems. The study gives an overview of present market segments and provides guidance with regard to the economic feasibility of respective systems.

  • Shabab Al-Tawhid: the Rebranding of Ansar Al-Sharia in Tunisia?
    PolicyWatch 2250 Shabab al-Tawhid: The Rebranding of Ansar al-Sharia in Tunisia? Aaron Y. Zelin اﻟﻌﺮﺑﻴﺔ Also available in May 9, 2014 Security crackdowns will not be enough to eradicate jihadist networks in Tunisia and Libya, which have the patience and ideological conviction to weather drastic reorganization. Eight months ago, the Tunisian government officially designated Ansar al-Sharia in Tunisia (AST) as a terrorist organization. Since then, Tunis has cracked down on the group's activities, going after both its dawa campaign (i.e., proselytization and social-welfare efforts) and any links members have to terrorist plots. On the whole, AST's public response has been to keep relatively quiet. Yet recent developments indicate that the group may be rebranding itself as Shabab al-Tawhid (ST; the Youth of Pure Monotheism), a shift that would have important implications for efforts to counter Tunisian jihadists and their associates in Libya. SHIFTING GEARS Within a week of the August designation, AST largely ceased releasing updates about its dawa campaign in Tunisia. The group may still be conducting lower-level dawa in rural areas outside the state's reach, but if so, it is no longer publicizing such activity. The main messages it has put out via its Twitter account have been declarations of solidarity with arrested "brothers," repeated calls for patience, and quotes from both traditional Islamic sources (the Quran and sunna) and ideological figures (e.g., Ibn Taymiyah, Sayyed Qutb, and Abu Qatada al-Filistini).
