海德曼提出的威权升级概念，在很大程度上解释了阿拉伯威权统治者如何能够在推行一系列自由主义改革的同时保持对权力的控制。突尼斯的媒体改革被广泛地解释为一种自由化改革，它的实施是为了让国内和国际选民感到该国正在进行真正的自由化，因此它被视为一种表面改革。虽然这种解释包含了一定程度的有效性，本文挑战的概念，改革完全是关于威权升级。也许是在无意中，改革使新的社会声音和行动者出现在媒体舞台上，他们从来没有机会讨论禁忌话题，这改变了公共辩论。虽然政治讨论被排除在外，政治多元化也不存在，但新的私营媒体设法挑战了以前流行的民族团结和同质的概念。
The concept of authoritarian upgrading introduced by Heydemann significantly contributes to explain how Arab authoritarian rulers have been able to maintain their grip on power while introducing a number of liberal reforms. The media reform in Tunisia has been widely interpreted indeed as one of those liberal reforms implemented to give domestic and international constituencies the sentiment that genuine liberalisation is under way in the country and it has therefore been dismissed as a façade reform. While this interpretation contains a degree of validity, this paper challenges the notion that the reform is exclusively about authoritarian upgrading. Perhaps unwittingly, the reform has permitted the arrival on the media scene of new social voices and actors that never had the opportunity to discuss taboo topics and this transforms public debate. While political discussions were excluded and political pluralism absent, the new private media managed to challenge previously prevailing notions of national unity and homogeneity.
