The screams for “work, freedom and national dignity”, echoing in the streets throughout Tunisia in 2011, have brought about political and democratic change, that led not only to the abolition of the former dictatorship, but more importantly to a new constitution and gain of political-democratic civic rights. The Tunisian revolution of 2011 has marked a crucial point in Tunisian history. With uprisings, sparked in Kasserine, then later in the interior regions of Tunisia, Tunisians spread their resistance countrywide against decades of authoritarian, corrupt rule under Zine El Abidine Ben Ali, as well as against the difficult socio-economic conditions they had to live in. The revolt led to further uprisings in the entire Arab region. Throughout the nation, the spirit of regaining sovereignty and freedom was (re)awakened: not only over the political and democratic space taken from the people, but over all aspects of political life, as well as the economic sovereignty Tunisians had been deprived of, from the time of French colonialism until power was taken by the autocratic government of the Democratic Constitutional Rally (RCD). This regaining of sovereignty equally included the claim of sovereignty over land.
