dc.description.abstract | One of the many issues that arose in the context of the uprisings in North Africa refers to the relationship between human rights and democracy. It was suggested during and immediately after the uprisings that the authoritarian regimes that were displaced were not representative of the peoples over which they governed. The new dispensations that were to be established should follow the principles of representative government, democracy and human rights. However, the relationship between these concepts is not as straight forward as is, sometimes, imagined. | en_GB |
