Stability source or curse? Fossil fuels and Algeria’s regime stability in the light of EU’s green transition
Authoritarianism’s reemergence in North Africa and the Middle East: The cases of Algeria, Egypt, Morocco and Tunisia
Data de publicació electrònica: 06-06-2025
Recalibrating the Local Lens: Drivers and Transformations of the European Union's Territorial Agenda in the Southern Neighbourhood
Since its inception, the European Neighbourhood Policy (ENP) has incorporated a local lens in its engagement with Southern partners. However, the capacity of local authorities to enact the political autonomy expected by the European Union (EU) is distant from reality. The article mobilizes the concept of hegemonic narratives in the cases of Morocco and Tunisia to problematize the set of discourses that establish the common understanding of ‘the l…
Elite polarization and democratic backsliding in Tunisia: Tracing Agency-Driven Mechanisms
Recent research has identified a strong correlation between polarization and democratic backsliding. The creation of antithetical groups in society is a necessary element in this type of autocratization process. Nevertheless, the agency-driven mechanisms through which elite polarization becomes harmful for democracy have been less explored in the literature. By resorting to process tracing methodology, the article analyses how elite polarization …
Tunisia’s democratisation process: When ‘consensus democracy’ undermines democratic consolidation
Consensus between moderate Islamists and moderate secularists is usually judged as the touchstone of democracy in Tunisia. However, after a decade, the ‘Tunisian model’ is being questioned, as institutional and economic crises have become the norm in the country. The aim of the article is to look at how consensus adopted in the transition affected long-term democratic consolidation. To answer this question the article unpacks the concept of conse…
Harraga and Europe: The emotional geographies of undocumented migrants in Tunisian filmmaking
Populist challenges to EU foreign policy in the Southern Neighbourhood: An informal and illiberal Europeanisation
Populist parties in government, such as Lega and Fidesz, have a declared interest in European Union (EU) foreign policy in the Southern Neighbourhood. Their main focus is on migration control, border management and security issues for these countries. It is thus relevant to investigate to what extent populism is shaping the development of the European Neighbourhood Policy (ENP) as it evolves from a normative-based policy towards a much more ‘inte…
Supporting the Tunisian transition? Analysing (in)consistencies in EU democracy assistance with a tripartite nexus model
This article puts forth a new heuristic model for analysing the EU's democracy assistance to non-accession countries. The EU's democracy assistance has predominantly been scrutinized in academia through the so-called democratization-stability dilemma, whereby allegedly the EU is found to single-mindedly promote regime stability to the detriment of democracy. Nevertheless, we argue that this conceptualization falls short of analysing the full dyna…
