  • The Tunisian Democratic Transition in Comparative Perspective
    Multiple but Complementary, Not Conflictual, Leaderships: The Tunisian Democratic Transition in Comparative Perspective Alfred Stepan Downloaded from http://direct.mit.edu/daed/article-pdf/145/3/95/1830770/daed_a_00400.pdf by guest on 30 September 2021 Abstract: Many classic studies of leadership focus on strong leadership in the singular. This essay focuses on effective leaderships in the plural. Some of the greatest failures of democratic transitions (Egypt, Syria, Libya) have multiple but highly conflictual leaderships. However, a key lesson in democratization theory is that successful democratic transitions often involve the formation of a powerful coalition, within the op- position, of one-time enemies. This was accomplished in Chile, Spain, and Indonesia. In greater detail, this essay examines Tunisia, the sole reasonably successful democratic transition of the Arab Spring. In all four cases, religious tensions had once figured prominently, yet were safely transcended by the actions of multiple leaders via mutual ideological and religious accommodations, negotiated socioeconomic pacts, and unprecedented political cooperation. A multiplicity of cooperating leaders, rather than a single “strong leader,” produced effective democratic leadership in Tunisia, Indonesia, Spain, and Chile.

The Tunisian constitutional process, despite some tensions, was largely peaceful and consensual. On the other hand, the process in Egypt of establishing a new constitutional arrangement had been tumultuous with repercussions that are likely to linger on for a protracted period of time.

  • What Does Mohammed Morsi's Death Mean for Egypt?
    THE BROOKINGS INSTITUTION THE CURRENT: What does Mohammed Morsi’s death mean for Egypt? June 18, 2019 PARTICIPANTS: Host: Adrianna Pita, Office of Communications, Brookings Guest: Shadi Hamid, Senior Fellow, Center for Middle East Policy, Brookings (MUSIC) PITA: You're listening to “The Current,” part of the Brookings Podcast Network. With us today is Shadi Hamid, a senior fellow in our Center for Middle East Policy at Brookings. On Monday, former Egyptian President Mohammed Morsi, imprisoned since the mass protests and military coup that ousted him from office in 2013, died in Cairo. Shadi, what do we know so far about what happened? HAMID: Yes, so, Morsi died in court, obviously unexpectedly. He was there for an espionage trial. He's been charged with any number of things and he's been in and out of court since the coup in 2013. There have been concerns, repeated concerns from the international community about lack of adequate health care. He's had various health problems, and Egyptian prisons aren't exactly the best place to be if you have health problems, so that had been a concern for a long time. And I think international organizations are calling for investigations into what happened. What was the extent of his health care, or lack thereof? But, he died in court, which is a striking image. PITA: What has international reaction been so far from regional leaders and such? HAMID: So, at this point, there have been some interesting reactions from Erdoğan. So, Erdoğan called Mohammed Morsi a martyr. And Erdoğan is of the Justice and Development Party, the AK Party, in Turkey, which shares some similarities with the Muslim Brotherhood.

BAKHTIYOR IBRAGIMOV, AMBASSADOR AND PERMANENT REPRESENTATIVE OF THE REPUBLIC OF UZBEKISTAN TO THE UNITED NATIONS TO PAY TRIBUTE TO THE LATE PRESIDENT OF TUNISIA, H.E. MR. MOHAMED BEJI ESSEBSI AT THE GENERAL ASSEMBLY NEW YORK, 1 AUGUST 2019 Madam President, I have the honor to deliver this statement on behalf of the Asia- Pacific Group of States, and join others to pay tribute to the late President Mohamed Beji Caid Essebsi of Tunisia, and celebrate his life and legacy. At the outset I would like to convey the deepest condolences of the Asia-Pacific Group of States to the family of President Essebsi and to the people and Government of Tunisia. President Essebsi occupies a pivotal place in the history of Tunisia having served as President, Prime Minister and Foreign Minister of the country including during the challenging times. President Essebsi was a tall intellectual figure. He has authored critically acclaimed books. During his six decades long public service, he was bestowed with numerous academic and civilian awards in Tunisia and abroad. President Essebsi was a visionary leader who had immensely contributed to Tunisia's development. He recognized the value of preventing conflict and of stability in bringing development and has launched a number of programs designed to counter terrorism. On social front, he was a votary of a modern secular, inclusive and equal society and led by example. His famous words while assuming Presidency bears testimony of his belief. He said that "he would be president of all Tunisian men and women without exclusion" and stressed the importance of "consensus among all parties and social movements." His commitment to gender equality was remarkable and inspiration to many in the region and beyond.

  • Why Egypt, but Not Tunisia?
    Edgar Mannheimer STVK02 Department of Political Science VT2014 Why Egypt, but not Tunisia? Comparing transitions in Egypt and Tunisia Author: Edgar Mannheimer Supervisor: Fariborz Zelli 1 Edgar Mannheimer STVK02 Abstract The purpose of this paper is to explain why Egypt’s transition from authoritarianism has so-far failed, while Tunisia’s is still moving forward. By using relevant theories within the field of democratization and transitology, this study examines three crucial differences in the two cases, which explain the difference in their respective outcomes. These three underlying differences are in the two cases’ military- influence, political society, and international pressure. This paper shows how the presence or absence of these influential factors have been a big part in determining Egypt and Tunisia’s transitional success. To compliment the study, six in-depth interviews with journalists, activists, analysts, and bloggers have been conducted – giving me a deeper understanding of the two cases and my study itself. Why was there an authoritarian counter-coup in Egypt, but not in Tunisia?

  • Ministerial Round Table on Strengthening Education, Science and Technology in Africa
    Ministerial Round Table on Strengthening Education, Science and Technology in Africa Dates: 26 October 2017 Venue: BICC, Lilongwe, Malawi Concept Note Background Poverty reduction and indeed economic development in Africa remains a challenge for Africa’s 54 nations. The African Union Agenda 20631 calls for “an integrated, prosperous and peaceful Africa, driven by its own citizens and representing a dynamic force in the international arena.” The vision coalesces African leaders in determination to ‘eradicate poverty in one generation and build shared prosperity through social and economic transformation of the continent’. A ten-year implementation plan has been developed for the implementation of Agenda 2063 which outlines flagship programs and projects. This Implementation Plan, the first in a series of five ten-year plans over the Agenda 2063 fifty-year horizon was adopted by the AU Summit in June 2015 as a basis for the preparation of medium term development plans of member states of the Union, the Regional Economic Communities and the AU Organs. The Implementation Plan has within it 12 focus areas for action, based on the review of national and regional level action plans. Key areas of focus include 1) Human Capital Development; 2) Agriculture/value addition and agro-businesses development; 3) Employment generation, especially the youth and females; 4) Gender / Women development and youth empowerment; 5) Good governance including capable institutions as well as 6) Science, Technology, Innovation, among others. The First Implementation plan also recognizes the approved continental frameworks for driving development in Africa including the Comprehensive African Agricultural Development Program (CAADP), the Science Technology and Innovation Strategy for Africa (STISA), Programme for Infrastructural Development in Africa (PIDA) and Accelerated Industrial Development for Africa (AIDA), among others.
