More about the book

The book explores Tunisia's unique approach to countering militant Islamic fundamentalism, starting with the pivotal removal of President Habib Bourguiba in 1987, referred to as "the change." It highlights Tunisia's progressive policies, such as banning polygamy and implementing state-funded contraception, contrasting its stability with the turmoil in neighboring Algeria. Through this analysis, the author sheds light on Tunisia's path toward modernization and the maintenance of a secular government amidst regional challenges.
