The Center for the Study of Islam and Democracy (CSID) cordially invites to a lecture and discussions on:     

Religion and Politics in Tunisia's Democratic Transition: Comparative Perspectives

(lecture will be in English with Arabic translation)  

Bloc B - 5eme étage, Montplaisir, Tunis

Professor Stepan has studied democratic transitions in over fifteen countries including Brazil, Chile, Spain, Turkey, Indonesia, Egypt and India. Looking at Tunisia from this comparative perspective, he will suggest some policies Tunisia might want to avoid and what to consider emulating. Most of all, he will say why he thinks Tunisia has a good chance to add to the world's existing repertoire of successful patterns of religion-state democratic relations.
