2014 Tunisian Constitution

دستور تونس 2014

Summary

Tunisian post-revolution constitution adopted on 2014-01-26 after three years of negotiation. Codified Tunisia as a democratic civil state, balanced presidential and parliamentary power, enshrined women's rights and freedom of religion, and won broad cross-ideological acceptance from Ennahda to secular parties.

Impact

Hailed internationally as the most progressive constitution in the Arab world and the foundational achievement of the Tunisian transition. Replaced by Saied's 2022 presidentialist constitution after his 2021 power-grab — the formal end of the post-revolution democratic experiment.

Parties involved

Ennahda
