This is an up-to-date and insightful account of modern politics in three crucial North African countries–Tunisia, Algeria, and Morocco, known together as the Maghreb. It examines the ways in which the outward forms of democratic governance can be emptied of content, specifically through a conjunction of a power-hungry leader and a quiescent civil society that allows him to wield this power.
