Tunisia has gone through two phases of transition since its independence from French colonial rule: The first phase was from Bourguiba’s rule (1987-1959) to that of Ben Ali (1987-2011), and the second was the 2010-2011 revolutionary phase, with steps taken towards the implementation of a democratic government.
