The loss of interest on the part of youth in conventional politics is reflected in new political behaviours such as cyber-activism which can bring to light dysfunctions characterizing conventional participation structures. We observed dysfunctions at the level of relations between generations, and noted that communication problems between young militant females and those identified to be role models, could lead to disengagement or militant reconversion.Text1 digital file (9 p.)Application/pdfenWOMEN'S RIGHTSWOMEN'S PARTICIPATIONGENDER MAINSTREAMINGCITIZENSHIPPOLITICAL BEHAVIOURCIVIL AND POLITICAL RIGHTSTUNISIACYBERACTIVISMYOUTHDEMOCRATIZATIONARAB SPRINGSynthesis Report
