Tunisia, which was occupied by France in 1881, gained its independence in 1956. For this reason, modern Tunisian literature has been delayed to reach an artistic form. Various developments were necessary for modernization to be experienced in Tunisia, just like in other Arab countries. First of all, there had to be an awareness and awakening movement that would save the people from the oppression and cruelty of the French. As a matter of fact, it is possible to encounter this awakening, which we can call the “Islah” movement, in the works of literary figures. Schools such as Zaytouna University, The Sadiki College and Khaldounia Madrasa were established for the development of the country culturally. The purpose of these schools is to provide students with a Western-style education as well as religious education. In this regard, The Sadiki College and Haldûniye Madrasa have played a complementary role for the religious education given at Zaytouna University. In addition, al-Râ’id al-Tûnisî, al-Hâdhira, al-Sa‘âde al-‘Uzmâ ve al-‘Âlam al-Adabi etc. established in the country. Publications have a very important role in delivering the produced literary products to the public and in establishing modern Tunisian literature. “Jama’at taht al-Sur” which was located in the capital Tunisia in the 1930s and 1940s, was a place where the literary figures and artists of the period came together. This place also constitutes an important part of the literature in terms of laying the foundations of modern Tunisian literature. Finally 20th century writers such as Abu’l-Qâsım al-Shabbî, Ali Douagi and Mahmoud al-Mas‘adi, who were among the names that left their mark on Tunisian literature in the century, were among the key names of literature related to the legacy they passed on to Tunisian literature and to the next generations. In this study, it will be attempted to briefly give a place to the main objectives that have influenced the establishment of modern Tunisian literature, which has an important place in Arabic literature

Tunisia is one of the many Muslim countries that continue to strive to build a family law system which is a permanent rule of law for Muslims. Both before and after Tunisia's independence, legal reforms were intensively carried out, including legal reforms in the field of family law. One of the laws implemented in Tunisia is the Tunisian Code of Personal Status (CPST) or other names Majallah Al-Akhwal Ash-Shakhshiyyah. The legal reforms carried out by Tunisia cannot be separated from the progressive thoughts that have colored family law policies which in the next stage will become state policies. This article is presented in a descriptive form using a literature study approach as the study material. The results of the study concluded that the Tunisian State carried out many Islamic family law policies based on the development of family law in the world and the needs of its citizens.

This paper traces the life and afterlife of Tunisia's literary avant-garde ( al-tali’a al-adabiyya), which thrived between 1968 and 1972. Al-tali’a sought to ‘revolutionize’ literary language and to root Tunisian literature in the multilingual environment and social reality of the country, at a crucial period of social and political change and against the backdrop of a Leftist turn in local dissident politics. Al-tali’a sought to complete the process of language and literary decolonization in intersection with key global tendencies, including Tiermondisme and decoloniality. The language question was articulated, then as in post-2011 Tunisia, in terms of democracy and justice. While the state promoted fostering Tunisianness as state policy, there were other takes on this concept that were progressive, more deeply decolonial and justice-driven. This paper uncovers the genesis of the movement through the work of Izzeddine al-Madani in drama and Tahar Hammami, among others, in fiction and poetry.

The practice of polygamy which is carried out by some Tunisian society generally torments the wife. This is the basis for the prohibition of polygamy in Tunisia. The purpose of this research is to find out about the prohibition of polygamy in Tunisia which is contained in the Tunisian Family Law. This study uses literature research that focuses on the object of study on existing books and literature. While the method used in this research is descriptive-analysis method, which provides an overview and analyzes the Tunisian family law regarding the prohibition of polygamy. The results of this study indicate that the Tunisian State in implementing the law on the prohibition of polygamy cannot be separated from social politics. The factor is the number of husbands who torment their wives and children. This is one of the reasons that makes the law on the prohibition of polygamy come into effect. Because of the injustice committed by husbands to their wives. But in reality the regulations on the prohibition of polygamy are still not running optimally. This is because there is no common will between the government and the people.

Praktek poligami yang dilakukan oleh sebagian masyarakat Tunisia pada umumnya menyengsarakan pihak isteri. Inilah yang menjadi dasar pelarangan Poligami di Tunisia. Tujuan penelitian ini adalah mencari tau terhadap pelarangan poligami di Negara Tunisia yang termuat dalam Hukum Keluarga Tunisia. Penelitian ini menggunakan penelitian kepustakaan yang memfokuskan pada objek kajian pada buku-buku dan literature yang ada. Sedangkan metode yang digunakan dalam penelitian ini adalah metode deskriptif-analisis, yaitu memberikan gambaran dan menganalisis Hukum Keluarga Tunisia terkait tentang pelarangan poligami. Hasil dari penelitian ini menunjukkan bahwa Negara Tunisia dalam penerapan undang-undang tentang larangan poligami tidak lepas dari social politik. Faktornya ialah dengan banyaknya para suami yang menyengsarakan pihak isteri dan anak. Inilah salah satu penyebab yang menjadikan berlakunya perundang-undangan tentang larangan poligami. Karena ketidakadilan yang dilakukan suami terhadap para isterinya. Tetapi pada kenyataannya peraturan larangan poligami tersebut berjalan masih belum maksimal. Ini disebabkan karena tidak adanya kesamaan kehendak antara pemerintah dan masyarakat.

Abstract The linguistic situation in the Arab world is in an important state of transition, with the “spoken” vernaculars increasingly functioning as written languages as well. While this fact is widely acknowledged and the subject of a growing body of qualitative literature, there is little quantitative research detailing the process in action. The current project examines this development as it is occurring in Tunisia: I present the findings from a corpus study comparing the frequency of Tunisian Arabic–Standard Arabic equivalent pairs in online forum posts from 2010 with those from 2021. The findings show that the proportion of Tunisian lexical items, compared to their Standard Arabic equivalents, increased from a minority (19.7%) to a majority (69.9%) over this period. At the same time, metalinguistic comments on the forum reveal that, although its status is still contentious, Tunisian has become unmarked as a written language. These changes can be attributed to major developments in Tunisian society over the period of study – including internet access and the 2011 revolution. These findings suggest destabilization of the diglossic language situation in Tunisia and a privileging of national identity vis-à-vis the rest of the Arab world.

Based on a review of the available literature, the state of the art and a checklist of the fauna of the Apidae family of Tunisia is presented. The first list of the species of the family is given. 184 species and subspecies belonging to 19 genera, 12 tribes and three subfamilies were listed. Distribution of recorded taxa from Tunisia and from the world is provided. Apinae is the subfamily with the highest species richness with 89 species. Nomada has the highest number of species represented by 62 taxa. The Tunisian East center is the least species-diversified regions with only 16 species and subspecies reported so far. Five species are endemic to Tunisian fauna. Eight Nomada and one Anthophora species were collected from Tunisia, but their identity should be re-confirmed. The presence of Thyreomelecta sibirica (Radoszkowski, 1893) in Tunisia is doubtful and a re-examination and confirmation are needed.

Abstract The Tunisian government, which is deeply divided, especially along ideological lines, responded to growing concerns over increased violence against women during the Coronavirus pandemic by establishing a new domestic violence shelter and 24/7 hotline. This article asks: Why did the state respond to gender-based violence(gbv) concerns during the Coronavirus pandemic in Tunisia, despite ideological and political divisions? We argue that the state addressed some concerns around violence during the pandemic because combatting gbv has bipartisan support in Tunisia. Tunisian Islamist and secularist women’s rights organizations succeeded in building a bipartisan coalition of support on this issue because they worked either together in a short-lived coalition or in tandem with similar goals over the past decade during the democratic transition in Tunisia. Building on the existing coalition literature, we show that feminist coalition formation before a pandemic has implications for feminists’ success in times of crisis.

Introduction In Tunisia, the Ministry of Health launched an awareness campaign in television spots and different social media platforms and started the vaccination campaign on the 13 March 2021 aiming to have vaccinated half of the Tunisian population by the end of 2021. However, to date, on July 31, 2021, only 1,104,286 people are completely vaccinated Objectives The aim of the study was to identify Tunisians’ mental perceptions and attitudes towards COVID-19 vaccines to examine the predictors of the COVID-19 vaccine hesitancy in the Tunisian population. Methods A group of citizens, randomly selected were invited to participate in the study. Data were collected through a focus group using a piloted topic guide. The entire discussion was recorded in audio-visual mode with a total duration of 1 hour. We also collected data on participant gender, age, education, and profession. Results Seven women and four men participated in the study All participants reported having doubts about the efficacy of the vaccines. Two participants reported that their acquaintances died after being vaccinated. They suspected that expired vaccines have caused the reported deaths. “I think these vaccines can be extremely dangerous. They could contain chemicals that are carcinogens or that have a castrating effect”, an interlocutor stated, supported by the rest of the group. We found unanimously in our study, attesting to the relevance of religion in the lives of the Tunisian people, which is in agreement with literature Conclusions Construction of multi-component and systematic interventions are required by public health authorities. Disclosure No significant relationships.

Records of free-living flatworms (turbellarians) from Tunisian waters are scattered. Based on new material and published accounts, an annotated checklist of free-living flatworm species from Tunisian waters is provided. A total of 29 species is recorded, including 18 species with new material and 11 species only from literature records. For each species, information on systematics, habitats and distribution is supplied, together with taxonomic or biological remarks. Three species, the acotylean polyclads Cestoplana rubrocinta Lang, 1884 and Comoplana agilis (Lang, 1884) as well as the marine triclad Cercyra hastata Schmidt, 1861 are recorded for the first time in Tunisia. The controversial occurrence of the leptoplanid polyclad Leptoplana tremellaris in the Mediterranean is supported with histological sections and embryological data. The proseriate Monocelis fusca Örsted, 1843 previously reported from Tunisia is considered to be a misidentification.By presenting a checklist of the recorded species, this work summarizes our current knowledge of the turbellarian fauna diversity in Tunisia, providing baseline data for future biogeographical, ecological, behavioral and evolutionary investigations.

Full textAbstract:
Mosaique et memoire studies paradigms that contribute to the construction of identity in the writings of thirteen Tunisian women novelists writing in French: Emna Bel Haj Yahia, Aicha Chaibi, Annie Fitoussi, Behija Gaaloul, Annie Goldmann, Souad Guellouz, Jelila Hafsia, Souad Hedri, Turkia Labidi Ben Yahia, Alia Mabrouk, Nine Moati, Katia Rubenstein, and Fawzia Zouari. Drawing upon post-colonial and feminist perspectives, this thesis analyzes texts through their poetics and in linguistic, cultural and literary contexts. Novels by women offer an inside view of women's evolution through a variety of characters representing three generations, just as they explore alternate ways of entering modernity based upon harmonizing traditional values (cultural roots, family, faith, community solidarity, a Mediterranean warmth of spirit, thinking "in Arabesques") with 'modern' values such as sexual equality and individual freedom.Multiple women's voices protest patriarchal and colonial or racist discourse, but also reveal spaces of happiness in women's lives. Jewish voices at times reinforce views by Muslim authors but at others present opposing viewpoints, deconstructing concepts such as 'Arab identity' and questioning nationalist claims to Islamic tolerance and multiculturalism.
In these French-language novels, images and metaphors, as well as expressions in dialectical Arabic, recall the rich cultural heritage underlying national consciousness, the memory and the mosaic which form both individual and national identities. The juxtaposition of Arabic and French suggests both the cross-fertilization of cultures and the impossibility of naming the inexpressible, just as it contributes to deconstructing identity through the medium of the novel.

Full textAbstract:
Figures du sujet dans le roman fin de siècle des années 1990-2000, interroge, dans une perspective socio-poétique, les dispositions que prend le sujet dans deux espaces littéraires et culturels, à partir d'une étude synchronique de quelques romans tunisiens et français contemporains : Hayet ou la passion d'Elles d'Anouar Attia, Un an de Jean Echenoz, Monsieur L... d'Azza Filali, La Télévision de Jean-Philippe Toussaint et Dondog d'Antoine Volodine. Notre point de départ a été le constat d'une orientation post-formaliste dans les discours critiques littéraire et philosophique qui marquent un " retour spectral " du sujet historique. Des problèmes esthétiques, épistémologiques et poétiques sont mis en relation. Plus qu'une crise du personnage, une déficience ludique du narrateur est notée dans le corpus français. Dans une perspective sociocritique, le déficit du narrateur renvoie à une crise des institutions plutôt qu'à un abandon du projet politique de la modernité. Dans les romans tunisiens, la crise du sujet personnage est isolée. L'autorité du narrateur est maintenue, tout en étant déjouée pour signifier un écart et un désir : créer les conditions de possibilité d'une ouverture de l'expérience. La " narration discordante " est l'expression d'un problème de lisibilité du monde de la fiction. Toutefois, d'un point de vue pragmatique, les stratégies narratives de la discordance deviennent ce qui aiguise la présence du sujet lecteur, sollicité pour une contribution à la lisibilité de l'histoire. Nous y lisons, dans les deux cultures, une invitation du discours littéraire au sujet historique à tenter de tracer les contours d'une modernité politique inédite.

Full textAbstract:
Cette étude vise à apporter une première approche critique de l’ensemble des œuvres littéraires des Italiens émigrés en Tunisie. À mi-chemin entre colonisateurs et colonisés, mais confrontés à l’acculturation française, les Italiens de Tunisie revendiquent leur identité, leur langue et leur culture ancestrales. De quelle façon la nouvelle Rome pourra racheter l’Afrique « latine » et enfin reconquérir Carthage, que la France coloniale a usurpée, au détriment de l’Italie en imposant un protectorat ?Il s’agira dans un premier temps d’analyser l’émergence d’une écriture sui generis intimement liée à la présence d’une colonie d’expatriés réclamant l’héritage d’un passé lointain dont les vestiges ont façonné les paysages d’un pays qui représente, à bien des égards, une terre promise. Quelle est la mission de cette écriture tunisienne multiculturelle et d’expression allogène, aux marges des littératures française et italienne ?Dans le débat culturel qui se développe entre Français et Italiens, quelles sont les réflexions des uns et des autres au sujet de la question identitaire, de l’interprétation de l’Histoire, des multiples expérimentations littéraires ? Il sera question aussi d’étudier les différentes représentations de la Tunisie coloniale, de la communauté italienne et de la rencontre de l’Autre à travers séparations et partages. Quelles images d’un univers colonial au carrefour de la France, de l’Italie et de la Tunisie retiendrons-nous de ces écrits variés ?Les principaux textes analysés, au nombre de dix-huit, ont été rédigés par Antonio Corpora, Menotti Corsini, Francesco Cucca, Federico De Maria, Luigi De Paolis, Ercole Labronio, Cesare Luccio, Vito Magliocco, Guido Medina, Adrien Salmieri, Francesco Santoliquido, Giuseppe Sicurella, Mario Scalesi et Clarice TartufariThis study aims to provide a critical approach to literary works of Italians immigrated to Tunisia. Halfway between colonizers and colonized and having to face with French acculturation, Italians in Tunisia claim their ancestral identity, their language and culture. By what means the new Rome may redeem "Latin" Africa and finally win Carthage that colonial France usurped with the imposition of a protectorate, at the expense of Italy?First of all we will analyse the emergence of a sui generis literature closely linked to the presence of an expatriate colony claiming the legacy of a distant past whose remains have shaped the landscape of a country that is, in many ways, a promised land. What is the mission of an allogeneic multicultural Tunisian writing at the margins of French and Italian literatures?In the cultural debate that takes place between French and Italians, what are the respective arguments about identity, interpretation of history and the multiple literary experiments? This study also concerns the different representations of colonial Tunisia, the images of the Italian colony and the encounter with the other, through separations and shares. What pictures of a colonial world suspended between France, Italy and Tunisia emerged from these scattered works? The texts examined were written by Antonio Corpora, Menotti Corsini, Francesco Cucca, Federico De Maria, Luigi De Paolis, Ercole Labronio, Cesare Luccio, Vito Magliocco, Guido Medina, Adrien Salmieri, Francesco Santoliquido, Giuseppe Sicurella, Mario Scalesi and Clarice Tartufari

Full textAbstract:
Cette thèse s’inscrit dans une optique comparatiste et interdisciplinaire qui étudie les traits spécifiques du « sacré » tel qu’il se manifeste dans un corpus bilingue, en ayant recours conjointement à des théories littéraires et exégétiques. À travers cette étude de l’intertexte du Coran et du hadith dans la littérature tunisienne d’expression française et arabe, nous avons pu souligner l’importance de trois dimensions intertextuelles majeures qui contribuent pleinement à l’élaboration d’une poétique du « sacré » à savoir : la mystique, la rythmique et le mythe. Notre thèse déconstruit les idées reçues qui font perdurer la séparation entre la littérature et le sacré en démontrant la pertinence de la relecture des textes « sacrés » par les auteurs. Ceux-ci semblent en effet, avoir intuitivement accédé à la déconstruction de plusieurs mythes inscrits dans l’ « impensable » islamique. Leur apport est plus que pertinent en ce moment, où l’Islam se propage plus par ces mythes que par l’essence de ses textesIn this thesis we aim to study what defines the sacredness in a comparative and interdisciplinary perspective as it manifests itself by a bilingual corpus. We had resorted to both literary and exegetical theories. Through this study of intertext of Qur’ân and Hadith in the tunisian literature which uses french and arabic-language we had emphasized the importance of three major dimensions in interextuality that contribute fully to devise the poetry in the « sacredness » : mystic, rhythmics and myth. Our thesis deconstructs preconceived ideas that keep the separation between the literature and sacredness by showing the importance of reviewing the sacred texts beyond doubt. The Authors seem to have intuitively deconstruct many myths of the « unthinkable » islamic thought. What they brought has considerable merit while Islam is becoming known more by its myths than by the essence of its texts

Full textAbstract:
Partir, voyager chez « les infidèles » n’était pas chose aisée dans la Tunisie du XIXe siècle. D’abord, il fallait être un diplomate ou quelqu’un de très aisé pour pouvoir entreprendre un voyage. Ensuite, et pour chaque déplacement, il était nécessaire de se justifier pour légitimer son acte. Les raisons de ces déplacements sont multiples. Certains devaient accomplir des missions diplomatiques décidées par un gouverneur, d’autres entreprenaient un voyage de découverte et d’agrément. Dans cette étude, les voyageurs tunisiens ne sont pas tous de la même génération, et n’appartiennent pas non plus au même milieu culturel et social. Ils ont néanmoins reçu la même éducation religieuse. La variété des influences, des observations et des analyses permet d’élargir le regard porté sur l’Autre. Ce travail de recherche traite les questions suivantes : comment perçoit-on l’Autre (l’Européen) quand on est musulman ? Comment l’Occidental reçoit-il le Tunisien chez lui ? Comment l’écriture en rend-elle compte ? Ce choix thématique ainsi qu’une sélection de voyageurs nous permet d’avoir un aperçu global sur l’évolution de la littérature de voyage en Tunisie au XIXe et jusqu’au début du XXe siècleLeaving 19th-century Tunisia to travel among the ‘Infidels’ was no easy thing. First, only diplomats or rich people could afford to travel. Then, for each journey, it was necessary to provide a justification. Reasons for travelling might be varied: some had to undertake a diplomatic mission on behalf of a ruler, others went on a journey for discovery and pleasure. The Tunisian travellers discussed in the present study belong to different generations, and come from different cultural and social backgrounds; they have however received the same religious education. Multiple influences, together with observations and analyses, induce them to broaden their gaze on the ‘Others’ (i.e.Europeans). My research project raises the following questions: what image of the ‘Others’ does a Muslim form ? how do Western people receive their Tunisian guests ? what account do writings give of these experiences? Such a thematic approach, together with a focus on selected travellers, allows us to have an overview of the evolution of travel literature in Tunisia in the 19th and early 20th centuries

Full textAbstract:
La présente recherche s’inscrit au plan scientifique dans la réflexion contemporaine menée sur l’élève lecteur et ses modes d’appropriation et de reconfiguration du texte lu. L’objet de ce travail est de mettre en évidence les problèmes spécifiques à la réception du personnage en liant étroitement pédagogie de la lecture littéraire et compétences culturelles, affectives et sociales requises et développées chez le lecteur dans le contexte scolaire tunisien. Notre interrogation principale consiste à nous demander si les modes d’approche du texte axés sur un rapport d’identification au personnage favorisent la motivation à la lecture et contribuent par là même à l’élaboration du sens et à la construction identitaire des jeunes lecteurs. Les investigations menées sont centrées sur deux sujets privilégiés : le statut du personnage romanesque dans le contexte pré-universitaire et son rôle dans l’appropriation du phénomène littéraire au lycée. L’objectif étant d’illustrer comment les différentes émotions peuvent devenir d’importants alliés dans la construction du sens.Une fois posés le cadre conceptuel de la recherche relative au personnage et l’état des lieux des savoirs sur la réception des lycéens, la réflexion se développe à partir de l’exemple de la lecture de la trilogie de Yasmina Khadra. Il s’agit d’un exemple à partir duquel nous proposons des perspectives didactiques pour la construction d’une façon de lire, à la fois participative et analytiqueThis scientific research is part of contemporary thinking on the student-led drive and its modes of appropriation and reconfiguration of the text. The purpose of this paper is to highlight the specific problems at the reception of the character by closely linking teaching of reading literary and cultural skills, as well as emotional and social skills required and developed at the level of the reader in the Tunisian school context. Our main question is to ask whether the ways of approaching a text-based report identifying the character promote reading motivation and thus contribute to the development ofmeaning and identity construction of young readers. The investigations focus on two main issues: the status of the fictional character in the pre-university context and its role in the appropriation of the literary phenomenon in high school. The objective is to illustrate how different emotions can become important components in the construction of meaning.Once laid the conceptual framework of research on the character and the inventory of knowledge on the reception of students, thinking will develop from the example of reading the trilogy by Yasmina Khadra. This is an example from which we offer didactic opportunities to build a way of reading, both analytical and participatory

Full textAbstract:
Zusammenfassung Several years after the Tunisian uprising of 2010–11, it is now time to explore the literary production of its aftermath. This chapter focuses on novels written in French and Arabic that have found acclaim in the Tunisian literary scene, all of them winners of the Tunisian prize for fiction, the Prix Comar d’Or. At the same time, the works deal in some way with the uprising of 2010/2011. This starting point allows various insights: First, it compares the novels, exploring trends such as autobiographic reflections and the turn to past revolutions. Secondly, the chapter asks more structural questions about the context of the novels’ production (authors, publishers) as well as about their honorary reception through literary awards. Beyond characterizing the post-revolutionary Tunisian literary scene, this approach also makes it possible to address the ways in which the Tunisian literary establishment wants the revolutionary events to be reworked in literature.

Full textAbstract:
AbstractCancer research is needed in the Arab world to provide evidence to healthcare workers and health policy makers. This chapter examines the literature on cancer research productivity in the Arab world, and the output of the 22 countries with respect to the number of publications, main types of cancers studied and top journals that researchers aim to publish their findings in. Although the Arab region is lagging in its cancer research output, it is reassuring that productivity has been on the rise in the last decade. There are great variations between countries in their contribution to cancer research, with Egypt and Saudi Arabia contributing the most and sub-Saharan Arab countries the least. Breast cancer is the most researched cancer in the Arab countries, overshadowing other leading cancers. The top journals that researchers published their work in are the Asian Pacific Journal of Cancer Prevention, Pan African Medical Journal, Saudi Medical Journal, Tunisie Medicale, the Gulf Journal of Oncology and the Journal of the Egyptian National Cancer Institute. The last two occupied the fifth rank equally. All these journals are Q3 journals except for the first, which is a Q2 journal. The challenges and barriers facing researchers in the Arab world should be examined and sources of cancer research funding expanded. Collaborations with researchers in international academic institutions should be encouraged to improve the quantity and quality of cancer research.

Full textAbstract:
AbstractThis study, financed by the Austrian “Dokumentationsstelle Politischer Islam”, attempts an analysis of what can be said about the phenomenon of “political Islam” in the Arab world and what can be said about religiously motivated political extremism (hereafter abbreviated RMPE) in an international comparison from the perspective of international, empirically oriented social sciences. We use open, internationally accessible data from the Arab Barometer and the World Values Survey to analyse these two phenomena. In this chapter, we describe the general outline of our study. We emphasise that we follow the example of Cammett et al. (2020), in attempting to present our own empirical data from recognised social science surveys on political Islam. In doing so, the focus is on a tradition influenced by the mathematical logic and analytical philosophy of the Vienna Circle through Rudolf Carnap (1988), of relying on the extension of a contested concept. In our case—of “political Islam”—the research of the Arab Barometer as well as Francois Burgat, but also Jocelyne Cesari, John Esposito, Gilles Kepel and Oliver Roy have in any case very clearly outlined which important value patterns the adherents of political Islam represent (five items from the Arab Barometer) and which political movements and governments of countries can be assigned to the extension of the phenomenon, such as the Muslim Brotherhood in Egypt, Sudan and Jordan, Jamaat-i-Islami in South Asia, the Refah Party in Turkey, the Islamic Salvation Front in Algeria, al Nahda in Tunisia, Hizballah in Lebanon, Hamas and Islamic Jihad in the Palestinian territories and Gamaa Islamiyya and Jihad in Egypt. It is certainly also legitimate, in the light of the above literature, to describe the current AKP government in Turkey and the Islamist regime in Iran as “political Islam in power”. Our measurement of “political Islam” thus adopts this perspective without “ifs” and “buts” and 1:1. After all, according to the “Arab Barometer” team, “political Islam” occurs whenever the following opinions are held in the region: It is better for religious leaders to hold public office Religious leaders should influence government decisions Religious leaders are less corrupt than civilian ones Religious leaders should influence elections Religious practice is not a private matter.

In Choice of Law in International Commercial Contracts. Oxford University Press, 2021. http://dx.doi.org/10.1093/law/9780198840107.003.0018.
Full textAbstract:
This chapter focuses on Tunisian perspectives on the Hague Principles. The main source of private international law in Tunisia is the 1998 Code of private international law (CPIL). Tunisia has not signed any convention on choice of law in international contractual matters. However, it is worth mentioning that, in the field of international arbitration, some conventions to which Tunisia is party include an express reference to party autonomy. As a matter of principle, Tunisian courts are bound only by Tunisian law and other international instruments duly ratified by Tunisia. Nevertheless, it is not uncommon that Tunisian courts refer to foreign laws, international conventions not ratified by Tunisia, model laws, foreign case law, or even foreign legal literature when such reference is deemed persuasive. Therefore, it can be safely said that nothing prevents Tunisian courts from referring to the persuasive authority of the Hague Principles. This would be the case if the parties invoked the Principles in support of their arguments in the case where a clear solution is lacking under Tunisian law.

Full textAbstract:
Using underexplored grey literature and personal interviews with officials, experts and businessmen, this chapter discusses the constitutive role of phosphate mining and trade unions in the politics of the periphery in Tunisia - politics that have been crucially affected by post-independence development agendas, the transformation of national elites in the crony capitalism of the Ben Ali era and its interplay with international donor and development institutions. First, the paper gives an historic overview of Tunisian phosphate mining and its role in regional development. Second, it analyses the politics of Tunisia’s periphery, the role of the Union Générale Tunisienne du Travail within it and the emergence of new social actors. Third, it takes a detailed look at how such conflicts played out during the strikes in the phosphate mines in 2008 and after 2011. It concludes with an outlook on future developments.

Full textAbstract:
The evolution of information and communication technology (ICT) affects all areas of activity including the financial industry. Indeed, it leads to rapid development of innovative and modern financial services, namely financial technology (Fintech). The latter is not well defined in the literature. This descriptive chapter aims to propose a comprehension of the Fintech concept based on three interpretations: Fintech as financial services relying on digital technologies, Fintech as startups and IT companies, and Fintech as an industry. An analysis of the components of the Tunisian Fintech ecosystem is then presented. The latter is mainly composed-of Central Bank of Tunisia, fintech startups (financing, payments, loyalty program, blockchain and cryptocurrencies, exchange services and insurance, and technology, IT, and infrastructure), technology developers, traditional financial institutions, and financial customers.

Full textAbstract:
The aim of the current study is to present the methodology for exploring code choice in the context of Tunisian higher education focusing on the use of Code Switching (CS). The study addresses these two research questions: To what extent and in what circumstances are Arabic, French and English used in Tunisian higher education contexts? What are the functions of code choice and code switching? To find answers to the research questions, this study leans on two types of observations namely informal observation and formal observation. The informal observation took place in informal settings, namely university corridors, libraries and eateries and the formal observation was conducted in classrooms. The aim of the informal observation is to investigate the languages used by students in public places. The classroom observation is used again to investigate the languages used in classes. After presenting the observation charts, the researchers presented the procedure of piloting. Due to the COVID situation, the researchers suggested piloting the observation charts by the use of recorded videos from Tunisian students’ university life, videos on multilingual classrooms and online courses. The study may methodologically contribute to the literature of observation design and validation.

Full textAbstract:
In this article, we tackle the issue of sentiment analysis in three Maghrebi dialects used in social networks. More precisely, we are interested by analysing sentiments in Algerian, Moroccan and Tunisian corpora. To do this, we built automatically three lexicons of sentiments, one for each dialect. Each lexicon is composed of words with their polarities, a dialect word could be written in Arabic or in Latin scripts. These lexicons may include French or English words as well as words in Arabic dialect and standard Arabic. The semantic orientation of a word represented by an embedding vector is determined automatically by calculating its distance with several embedding seed words. The embedding vectors are trained on three large corpora collected from YouTube. The proposed approach is evaluated by using few existing annotated corpora in Tunisian and Moroccan dialects. For the Algerian dialect, in addition to a small corpus we found in the literature, we collected and annotated one composed of 10k comments extracted from Youtube. This corpus represents a valuable resource which is proposed for free.

Full textAbstract:
This Helpdesk Report is part mapping of the mediation and peacebuilding actors in Tunisia and part review of the available literature. There are a host of governmental and non-governmental organisations (NGOs) that are involved in the mediation of conflicts and peacebuilding, both in formal and informal ways. There is overlap in the principles and goals of peacebuilding and mediation; many organisations conduct both practices, intermingling them. Local, regional, national and international actors have applied mediation and peacebuilding to many different types of conflict in the past decade in Tunisia, involving varied parties. The case studies included in this rapid review cover conflicts relating to labour and the economy, the environment, basic services, constitutional/political disputes, and women’s rights. They involve local communities, the unemployed national and regional trade unions, civil society organisations (CSOs), national utility and mineral companies, and political parties.

Bourekba, Moussa. Climate Change and Violent Extremism in North Africa. The Barcelona Centre for International Affairs, October 2021. http://dx.doi.org/10.55317/casc014.
Full textAbstract:
As climate change intensifies in many parts of the world, more and more policymakers are concerned with its effects on human security and violence. From Lake Chad to the Philippines, including Afghanistan and Syria, some violent extremist (VE) groups such as Boko Haram and the Islamic State exploit crises and conflicts resulting from environmental stress to recruit more followers, expand their influence and even gain territorial control. In such cases, climate change may be described as a “risk multiplier” that exacerbates a number of conflict drivers. Against this backdrop, this case study looks at the relationship between climate change and violent extremism in North Africa, and more specifically the Maghreb countries Algeria, Morocco and Tunisia, which are all affected by climate change and violent extremism. There are three justifications for this thematic and geographical focus. Firstly, these countries are affected by climate change in multiple ways: water scarcity, temperature variations and desertification are only a few examples of the numerous cross- border impacts of climate change in this region. Secondly, these three countries have been and remain affected by the activity of violent extremist groups such as Al Qaeda in the Islamic Maghreb (AQIM), the Islamic State organisation (IS) and their respective affiliated groups. Algeria endured a civil war from 1991 to 2002 in which Islamist groups opposed the government, while Morocco and Tunisia have been the targets of multiple terrorist attacks by jihadist individuals and organisations. Thirdly, the connection between climate change and violent extremism has received much less attention in the literature than other climate-related security risks. Although empirical research has not evidenced a direct relationship between climate change and violent extremism, there is a need to examine the ways they may feed each other or least intersect in the context of North African countries. Hence, this study concentrates on the ways violent extremism can reinforce vulnerability to the effects of climate change and on the potential effects of climate change on vulnerability to violent extremism. While most of the existing research on the interplay between climate change and violent extremism concentrates on terrorist organisations (Asaka, 2021; Nett and Rüttinger, 2016; Renard, 2008), this case study focuses on the conditions, drivers and patterns that can lead individuals to join such groups in North Africa. In other words, it looks at the way climate change can exacerbate a series of factors that are believed to lead to violent radicalisation – “a personal process in which individuals adopt extreme political, social, and/or religious ideals and aspirations, and where the attainment of particular goals justifies the use of indiscriminate violence” (Wilner and Dubouloz, 2010: 38). This approach is needed not only to anticipate how climate change could possibly affect violent extremism in the medium and long run but also to determine whether and how the policy responses to both phenomena should intersect in the near future. Does climate change affect the patterns of violent extremism in North Africa? If so, how do these phenomena interact in this region? To answer these questions, the case study paper first gives an overview of the threat posed by violent extremism in the countries of study and examines the drivers and factors that are believed to lead to violent extremism in North Africa. Secondly, it discusses how these drivers could be affected by the effects of climate change on resources, livelihoods, mobility and other factors. Finally, an attempt is made to understand the possible interactions between climate change and violent extremism in the future and the implications for policymaking.
