While in Egypt extra-institutional forms of contention are commonplace and Libya and Yemen are plagued by intermittent fighting, in Tunisia the transitional process proceeded more orderly. The October 2011 elections have produced a National Constituent Assembly (al-Majlis al-Ta»sīsī al-Waṭanī, NCA) that by and large worked within a framework of preestablished rules. No major political force has contested the legitimacy of this assembly, and a constitutional draft has been presented to the public in late 2012. While political conflict is by no means absent from the Tunisian political scene, the degree to which elite contestation is carried out via institutional channels is what sets Tunisia apart from other countries.1

Instead, the ruling party has been instrumental in using anticorruption measures to gain
more control over state structures and replace old patronage structures with new ones, all the
while enlarging on some neoliberal reforms in the economy. Recent deteriorations of press
freedom and judiciary independence have also weighted down on control of corruption.
