Dialogue Processes after the 2011 Arab Uprisings

Author: Abdel-Fattah Mady

This study aims to understand and evaluate the different cases of dialogue that took place –or the attempts that some of the parties tried to exert so that a dialogue would take place– in the wake of democratic revolutions in four Arab countries, namely, Tunisia, Yemen, Egypt and Libya.

The study attempts to examine these dialogue processes at all stages, i.e. starting from the overall context of the dialogue, or the context within which the dialogue took place, as well as the design of the dialogue process and the dialogue outputs, and ending with the challenges that stood before the implementation of the dialogue outcomes, in addition to exploring the possibility of having other dialogues in the future. All this analysis is continued further to include some suggestions for supporting and assisting the implementation of future initiatives for conflict transformation, peace promotion and enhancing democratization processes in the countries under study.
