This article aims to analyse the cultural background of the political elites involved nowadays in the democratization’s process in North Africa. It argues that this process cannot succeed unless a break-off with the culture of national liberation movement, pervasive in these countries, occurs on three levels. The first one is the primacy it gives to collective goals over individual rights, the second, the hostility it has towards liberalism in general and to free market economy in particular and finally the way it defines national identity, membership and citizenship
