Title Governing Revolt: EU-North African Relations after the Uprisings
Author(s) Mullin, Corinna; Patel, Ian
Abstract This article focuses on under-discussed external dimensions of the 2010-2011 North African uprisings. In particular, it considers European Union liberal governance- in the form of economic 'aid', and 'technical' and transitional 'assistance' - as both a form of intervention and a juridical-institutional force that has informed post-uprising states' development. This article also considers ways in which the EU's role in a broader security regime, consolidated in the post 9-11 period, overlaps with and reinforces the liberal-governance imperatives of 'stability' and 'development'. It concludes by briefly assessing forms of resistance to liberal governance that have emerged in Egypt and Tunisia.
