Routledge Handbook on Elections in the Middle East and North Africa
Multiparty Coalition Governments, Portfolio Allocation and Ministerial Turnover in Morocco and Algeria
The article analyzes multiparty coalition governments under authoritarian tutelage in Morocco and Algeria. While in Morocco multiparty coalition governments are just a means for the King to dress their windows, in Algeria they represent a new arena of power bargaining. In both cases, portfolio allocation follows the Gamson’s law but cases of advantage for the formateur are also given. Nonetheless, the parties included in multiparty coalition gove…
The ‘myth of moderation’ following the Arab Uprisings: Polarization in Tunisia and Egypt’s founding elections

The article examines how Salafi parties dealt with economic policy-making and finds that they reluctantly engaged with it, offering contradic…

Although the failed democratic transition in Egypt following the Arab Spring is unanimously held as a poster child for the stubbornness of authoritarianism in the MENA region, its determinants remain disputed. Contributing to this debate, this article focuses on the noxious effects of past electoral authoritarianism on the transitional party system. More specifically, through quantitative text analysis, the article demonstrates that transitional …
Political change in the Middle East and North Africa: After the Arab Spring
It is uncontested that the Arab Spring has irreparably altered the structures of the Middle Eastern and North African (M.E.N.A.) regimes. Yet, even though much has been written about it, the apprai
