اللامركزية في تونس بعد إصلاحات الجمهورية الثانية

Abstract EN

Since the transformation of the system in 2011, Tunisia has started following a new trend in realizing democracy and a wise government through expanding the range of the citizens' participation in activating their role in the governance issues.

This interest has been adopted due to reducing the role of the state and paying much attention to that of the civic society and the institutions in in progressing countries.

Constructing decentralization can provide it with the effective role in the local development.

More importantly, its existence is an embodiment of the principle of democracy.

These transformations led to a wide discussion among society about the role of the local structures, mainly the role of the local communities in the development.

In 2014, the new constitution has reflected these trends via devoting the 7th section, “The local Government, ” to this issue.

In addition, the magazine of the local communities, published in 2018, represented a main subject in the trend that has been specified by the new system of the country future.

In the light of this, the role of decentralization (as an administrative organizational system) has recently become increasing in the Arabic countries in spite of their recent independence and their variant historical and political circumstances of the state general democratic construction.

So, this increase results from the diversified tasks of the state and its growing responsibilities that led it to this choice of distributing them to enhance the country's development.
