The image is a graph showing four V-Dem indices for Tunisia from 2010 to 2024, on a scale from 0 (less democratic) to 1 (more democratic). The Civil society participation index, the Freedom of expression index, the Judicial constraints on the executive index, and the Liberal Democracy Index all show sharp upward turns in 2010 to 2012, remaining stable on a high level until they all decline from 2021 and onward, many of them sharply.

📉 #GotW From Hope to Backsliding in #Tunisia
This week’s graph shows the democratic reversal in Tunisia 2010 to 2024. The 4 indices evaluate democracy on a scale from 0 (less democratic) to 1 (more democratic).

Thank you to @ITAM and @egenpolisci.bsky.social for a wonderful workshop arguing about gender and political power. We won't give up studying representation, violence against women, and backlash just because there are haters!
