في الهندسة الانتخابية للمراحل الانتقالية : انتخابات المجلس الوطني التأسيسي في تونس مثالا

Abstract EN

This study fits into a broad category of scholarship concerned with transitional periods in various political systems.

Specifically, it examines the political transition in post-revolutionary Tunisia since 2011.

It does so by comparing the legal provisions of the post-revolutionary transition - the major texts, which define the transitional stage - and the political realities, which take the shape of events, actions and political discourse.

A point of particular focus is the 2011 elections to the National Constituent Assembly, which the author analyzes through the rubric of "electoral engineering".

One more conclusion of the paper is that electoral engineering remains a feature of Tunisian politics, although it has gone from "authoritarian electoral engineering" to "democratic electoral engineering," reflecting changes which have taken in the country as a whole.
