النشاط النقابي و تحديات المرحلة الانتقالية في سياق "الربيع العربي" : مثال الاتحاد العام التونسي للشغل

Abstract EN

This paper will present a study of the challenges posed by the Tunisian transitional phase since the country's successful popular revolution; specifically, it will examine the problem from the perspective of the Tunisian General Labor Union.

Any appropriate discussion of the Tunisian post-revolutionary transitional phase would call for an understanding of the theory of transitional phases, the author has chosen to focus primarily on the conceptual framework of civil society.

He did this, however, only after highlighting some of the theoretical limitations of the concept of a civil society.

With this in mind, Tunisia's General Labor Union remains one of the most significant pillars of Tunisian civil society.

For the purposes of this paper, "civil society" is defined as those social forces which defend the ideals of justice and dignity and which fight to undo the subcultures and structures which have hindered political freedoms in Tunisia.
