%X In the past period we have seen a lot of story about Tunisia¡¯s revolution, but few people understand what exactly happened in this country. It is the High North country on the African continent with a population which exceeding 10.5 million inhabitants and a GDPof 9,400$ per capita in 2010. In Tunisia there are 13% unemployment, below the poverty live about 3,8% of the population (2005), GDP growth in 2010 was about 3%. This country was one of the most open economies in the region and in the past decade saw strong economic growth, which slowed down because of shocks in the euro area, since theEU was a major economic partner of this country. The growth of the economy was not sufficient to reduce unemployment in the country in recent years. According to research at The Economist in 2010, Tunisia is classified as an authoritarian state and the so-called Democracy index of 2.79 and ended on 92nd place from 167 countries. Since itsdeclaration of independence from France 55 years ago, Tunisia had only two presidents who ruled autocratically and until 2011 demonstrations against the regime were very rare. The Government are strove to maintain peace in the country by all available means, and everyopposition thought was cat down from her root. Because of Tunisia was a state where with decades people aren¡¯t opposed to the government and appeared to rule a general lethargy, without any collective consciousness and hope that the situation can be improved. Untilearly 2011 the authoritarian regime and the Western Allies and the United States believed that the people of this country can raise its voice and dignified life for greater freedom. At the end of 2010 began demonstrations against authoritarian regime, and organization ofprotest in Tunisia, first was performed by means of mass communication - mobile phones and Internet social networks (Facebook, My Space, and Twitter). Here, we can ask about dilemma of what is the impact of the Internet, social networks and mobile phones to organize riots and demonstrations? Are we entitled to say that Tunisia is the first Internet revolution happened in the world? However the genesis of the reasons that led to riots gates regime Zine El Abidine Ben Ali are deep in the past of this country.
