Abstract

According to analysts, ?stability? represents the main feature of Tunisian model of development. International donors point out positively that concern without specifying its outlines. They postulate that stability is a fundamental factor to realize economic development. Consequently, ?stability? can justify different economic strategies, even paradoxical ones. However, the use of ?stability? by Tunisian authorities refers to a technique of government rather than to a trivial semantic shift from macroeconomic to socio-political « stability ». The Tunisian discourse translates a mode of government which ambition is to adapt its action to a liberalized and globalized economy. It also intends to manage social pressure and redistribution conflicts. As a result, « stability » in the Tunisian context reveals a kind of government practices which aim at coherently articulating the economic, social and political fields in order to make transformations easier to govern.
