Ten years after the Arab world’s first country rose up against injustice, the failure of the democratic process has placed the country at a dangerous crossroads

The Rosa Luxemburg Stiftung in collaboration with the Global Institute for Sustainable Prosperity and the network “Politics of money” is organizing the International conference: “The quest for economic and Monetary Sovereignty in 21st Century Africa: lessons to be learnt and ways forward” from 6 to 9 November in the Cité de la Culture, Tunis.

With this international conference, we aim to open the discussions and debates on money, debt and dependency and to bring the study of African dependency into the conversation on global monetary relations that are too often pursued from a largely Eurocentric perspective.
