Tunisie sondage : Une économie en manque de performance et la corruption cont...Jamaity
Tunis, Tunisie— Un nouveau sondage réalisé par le centre de l’Institut Républicain International (IRI) pour les sondages révèle que les mauvaises conditions économiques et la corruption continuent de susciter une grande insatisfaction publique en Tunisie.
« Ce sondage renforce une nécessité vitale de résoudre les problèmes les plus préoccupants des tunisiens : la corruption et l’économie, » déclare Scott Mastic, Directeur Régional pour l’Afrique du Nord et le Moyen Orient. » Nos résultats renforcent le besoin de faire face à la corruption aux niveaux local et national, et espérons que le gouvernement intègre cette approche dans sa ‘guerre contre la corruption’ lancée tout récemment »
Un total de 87% des tunisiens décrivent la situation économique comme mauvaise (26%) ou très mauvaise (61%). (44%) disent que le chômage est le plus grand problème auquel fait face le pays, suivi de l’économie et la crise financière à 24%. Une majorité claire de répondants (72%) pense que la lutte contre la corruption est le meilleur moyen pour améliorer l’économie de leurs communautés, suivi de 59% qui disent que les collectivités locales vont « rendre plus facile de lancer des entreprises pour les entrepreneurs »
La corruption continue d’être une préoccupation majeure, avec 89% de tunisiens qui affirment que la corruption est plus élevée aujourd’hui qu’avant la révolution démocratique de 2011. 46% pensent que les relations personnelles (wasta) mèneraient le « plus probablement » vers la richesse en Tunisie. Particulièrement, pour la deuxième fois dans l’histoire des sondages en Tunisie, les répondants ont mis les hôpitaux en tête des institutions où ils auraient fait face à la corruption (17%).
Le sondage indique aussi in déclin de l’intérêt à la participation au processus électoral. 50% des répondants disent qu’ils sont « peu » (9%) ou « très peu » (41%) enclins à aller voter aux élections municipales-une augmentation de 7 point par rapport à avril 2017. En outre, 83% ne savent pas ou refusent de dire à quels partis ils voteraient si les élections allaient être organisées demain.
Méthodologie
Ce sondage a été mené pour le compte du Centre de l’Institut Républicain International (IRI) pour les sondages par la société tunisienne, ELKA Consulting sous la supervision de Chesapeake Beach Consulting. Les questions avaient focalisé en premier sur l’économie afin de fournir aux différentes parties prenantes des données et de permettre aussi de leur indiquer les priorités publiques.
Les données ont été collectées du 11 au 17 Août 2017 moyennant des interviews en face à face. Un échantillon national de 1226 Tunisiens âgés de 18 ans et plus. Un sur-échantillonnage a été effectué dans trois régions connaissant des difficultés économiques. La marge d’erreur étant de plus ou moins 2, 85% au milieu de gamme de niveau de confiance de 95%. Les chiffres indiqués dans les graphs et des tableaux peuvent ne pas faire la somme de 100% en raison de l’arrondissement.

Russian anarchist and anti-war movement in the third year of full-scale warAntti Rautiainen
Anarchist group ANA Regensburg hosted my online-presentation on 16th of May 2024, in which I discussed tactics of anti-war activism in Russia, and reasons why the anti-war movement has not been able to make an impact to change the course of events yet. Cases of anarchists repressed for anti-war activities are presented, as well as strategies of support for political prisoners, and modest successes in supporting their struggles.

• County governments: Kenyans are divided in their assessment of
county government leadership and want more involvement in key
county affairs.
• Fight against terror: Most Kenyans support the Kenya Defence
Forces’ involvement in Somalia and the Nyumba Kumi initiative as
good security measures against terrorism in the country.
• The International Criminal Court (ICC): Most Kenyans do not
support the country’s withdrawal from the ICC because it is

What is Afrobarometer?
3
• An African-led, non-partisan survey research project that
measures citizen attitudes on democracy and governance, the
economy, civil society, and other topics.
• Started in 12 countries in 1999; expanded to 35 African countries in
Round 5 (2011-2013); round 6 surveys ongoing (2014 -2015)
• Goal: To give the public a voice in policymaking by providing
high-quality public opinion data to policymakers, policy
advocates, civil society organizations, academics, news media,
donors and investors, and ordinary Africans.
• A national partner in each country conducts the survey. In Kenya,
Afrobarometer Round 6 survey was conducted by the University of
Nairobi’s Institute for Development Studies (IDS).
5. WWW.AFROBAROMETER.ORG
Methodology
• Nationally representative sample of adult citizens
All respondents are randomly selected.
Sample is distributed across all 47 counties and along
urban/rural divide in proportion to their share in the national
adult population.
Every adult citizen thus has known and equal chance of being
selected/included in the survey.
• Face-to-face interviews in language of respondent’s choice.
• Standard questionnaire which allows comparisons across
countries and over time.
• Sample size in Kenya of 2,397 adult citizens yields a margin of error
of +/-2% at a 95% confidence level.
• Fieldwork for Round 6 survey in Kenya was conducted between
12th November and 5th December 2014.
