Abstract

This article takes stock of the democratic transition process in Tunisia, a process that starts from a revolution with a clear background of social demands and desire for freedom and justice. Political reform has been considered as a priority over the other social demands, both during the first stage of the transition as in the second. This political process has managed to monopolize all the interest in public and media space, displacing all other topics that were the background to the protests in the first year of the revolution: youth employment, prosecution of authorities responsable for the repression and murder of the martyrs of the revolution, and also the prosecution of corruption cases involving members of the old regime and the relatives of former President Ben Ali.
