    EU Democracy Promotion in Tunisia and Morocco: Between Contextual Changes and Structural Continuity
    in Mediterranean Politics , Volume 19, Issue 3, Special Issue: The Politics of Foreign Aid in Arab World. The Impact of the Arab Uprisings ,  2014 ,  351-372
    This paper offers an analysis of democracy promotion through the EIDHR in Morocco and Tunisia, before and after the Arab uprisings. It questions the effect of the Arab insurrections on the EIDHR and European Union democracy promotion. These policies are found to be shaped first and foremost by institutional determinants intrinsic to the EU but secondarily sensitive to the human rights realities in Morocco and Tunisia. Therefore, the Arab uprisings represent a contextual event that can trigger minor adjustments but certainly not truly challenge the essence of EU democracy promotion in the region.
