| description | Over the last decade, the Arab Spring phenomenon in the Middle East and North
Africa has brought significant transformation towards Tunisia’s political landscape.
During the 14 days of street protest, Tunisian women have played critical roles in
assisting their male counterparts in securing the ultime goal of the revolution –
regime change. This article argues that after the 2011 revolution, the new Tunisian
government has gradually adopted the principal idea of state feminism, which
emphasizes on the role of ruling government via affirmative action in supporting the
agenda of women’s rights. In so doing, this article examines the connection between
state feminism and the plight of women’s struggles in Tunisia after the 2011
revolution and, looks into the impact of top down polices, and government
approaches towards improving the status of women. This article concludes that
women in the post revolutionary era have experienced a new trajectory in political
and social freedom,the country has recorded a spike increase in the number of active
female lawmakers, government executives, politicians, electoral candidates and the
emergence of human right groups, gender activists and feminist movements. All
these ‘women’s actors’ have directly involved in the process of drafting the new
Tunisian constitution, which resulted in the acknowlegdement of women’s rights
protection via article 46 in 2014 and the Nobel Peace Price Award in 2015. |
