A Scholarly Exploration of Tunisia's Historical CohesionThe Tunisian Exception: How Ancient Statehood and National Unity Shaped the Arab World's Most Cohesive Nation offers an in-depth analysis of Tunisia's unique path, positioning it as a model of stability amid regional upheaval.Dr. Hichem Karoui introduces the Carthage debate through the lens of legend and genetics: Despite minimal Levantine DNA, Carthaginians maintained Phoenician identity via language, religion, and urban planning-a "New City" born of migration and cultural synthesis. This foundational myth, embodied in Dido's tale, reflects enduring ties to Tyre.Subsequent chapters trace evolution from Roman-Islamic transitions to pre-colonial autonomy under the Ottomans, colonial resistance, and post-independence nation-building. Key themes include the demography of integration-where ethnic minorities pose no political threat-and the role of education in fostering civic consciousness. Insights on migration, ideological unity, and comparisons with neighbours underscore Tunisia's exceptional state capacity.Published by Global East-West (London) in the Mediterranean Notebooks collection, this 2025 edition combines rigorous research with forward-looking analysis. This edition is perfect for academic libraries, historians, and policymakers alike.
