<p>The process of drafting Tunisia’s post revolution constitution began in February 2012 and ended two years later in February 2014, when the final vote by the Constituent Assembly took place. The two year process was characterized by multiple crises and interruptions. Despite this extremely difficult and rocky post-revolutionary context, in which the counterrevolutionary forces sought to destabilize the country, Tunisians were able to overcome the crisis. However, despite characterizations of the outside observers about the success of the process, counterrevolutionaries ended up derailing the country's democratic and popular gains. This chapter provides a blow by blow account of the process.
