Understanding regime divergence in the post-Uprising Arab states
Abstract
Despite the fact that democracy was a main demand of the protestors who spearheaded the Arab uprisings, five years later only Tunisia qualifies as democratic while elsewhere the outcomes have been either authoritarian restoration or failing states. This paper seeks to understand these three divergent trajectories in the post-Uprising Arab states, with Tunisia, Egypt and Syria taken as representative of each.
