Edraak Webinar Series #2 - Tunisia's Failed Democratic Transition: What Went Wrong?

Since the 2011 Arab Spring, Muslim-majority countries have witnessed rising pressures and expectations from their citizens to ensure the protection of human rights while undergoing democratic transitions. Discussions on human rights and democracy in the Muslim world inevitably include the formation of pro-democratic coalitions between secularists and Islamists, the impact of secularist fears and constituencies on political dynamics, and the prospects for political moderation. By examining the failure of Tunisia's democratic transition, how do we analyze the similarities and differences among democratizing nations with significant Muslim populations?

 

Join us in this exciting Edraak webinar to debate these critical issues as we;
1. Examine the success and struggle of transition to democracy in Tunisia, and how they might speak to democratic transition attempts in other Muslim-majority countries
2. Reflect on the progress in reforming democracy and human rights in Muslim societies in particular
