    Tunisie et Libye: paradigme et contre-paradigme d’une révolution heureuse
    in Rivista di Studi Politici Internazionali , Volume 78, n. 2, aprile-giugno ,  2011 ,  199-224
    In this year 2011 the political landscape of the Arab world was revolutionised and along the Southern shore of the Mediterranean authoritarian regimes have come to a deep crisis. The Author examines the cases of Tunisia and Libya. In Tunisia the Jasmine revolution was successful thanks to a society relatively modernised and to an army ready to fraternise. On the contrary in Libya, where the society is split in regional and tribal factions and the army behaves accordingly, a tentative insurgency has brought about to a civil war. Hence the Author is in doubt on the nature of the ‘Libyan democratic insurgency’, while he is optimistic for the future of the Tunisian regime change.
