  • The Post-Arab Spring Social Contract in Tunisia

    Open Access•Mohamed Ismail Sabry•ARTICLE•International Journal of Politics…•2026

    This paper, first, investigates how the social contract of post-2011 Revolution Tunisia was shaped using a process tracing methodology and, second, investigates the comparative gains/losses of the different considered social actors from this social contract. The social contract is perceived as a product of the prevailing state-society relations which are analyzed based on social and policy coalitions. The actors’ activities and their comparative …

  • The Rise of Nasserism as an Institutional Change

    Open Access•Mohamed Ismail Sabry•ARTICLE•International Journal of Politics…•2026•References: 40

    This paper investigates the emergence of Nasserism as a major institutional change in Egypt’s political economic development. It explores whether Nasserism was more likely the outcome of a deterministic path fostered by Egypt’s pre-1952 structural dynamics and interactions between institutional settings and external shocks? Or was it the outcome of actors’ agency and path-dependent development following a critical juncture? This research contribu…

  • The development of Tunisia’s green transition, actors’ interests, and policy coalitions’ power dynamics

    Open Access•Mohamed Ismail Sabry•ARTICLE•The Extractive Industries and…•2025•References: 20

    The green transition did not proceed in Tunisia as planned in its democratic decade (2011-2021) because of the relative weakness of the pro-transition policy coalition vis a vis the contra-coalition. • The Tunisian case in the democratic decade shows that an extractive green transition pathway is unstable in a more democratic society with active societal actors. • The constitutional coup of 2021 reshuffled power dynamics, coordination, and policy…

  • The green transition in Morocco

    Open Access•Mohamed Ismail Sabry•ARTICLE•The Extractive Industries and…•2025•References: 14

    The green transition is regarded as a big developmental project in Morocco.

The benefits accrue to the pro-transition coalition made…

After a theoretical discussion on the available literature, a theoretical model building on and complem…
