North Africa After the Arab Spring: Challenges and Prospects
Events
North Africa has witnessed significant transformations since the outbreak of the Arab Spring in 2011. These events brought sweeping political and social changes, but the outcomes have varied dramatically across the region. Tunisia, often viewed as a relatively successful example of democratic transition, has experienced serious democratic backsliding in recent years. In contrast, the ousting of Libya’s dictator Muammar Qadhafi and the subsequent developments have been marred by widespread violence, political fragmentation, and external interference, leaving the country struggling to find a path to stability.
