Sumario:This paper put forward a small analysis of the changes that occurred in the Tunisian institutions after the election of the current president, Kais Saied. By exploiting the fragility of the country's newborn democracy and aided by multiple exceptional conditions, he has indeed been able to carry out significant changes in Tunisia's constitutional order, concentrating power in the hands of the Head of State in a way that has not been seen since the times of Ben Ali. This article covers the main transformations thataffected the institutions of the north African Country to investigate the state of health of its democratic regime, in order to understand if Tunisia is still in a phase of transition towards a more inclusive and participatory system or if we are facing a new authoritarian era. It does so by giving at first a little display of Saied's political project, then summarizing his deeds during the years as president, all while considering the impact of exogenous factors such as the Covid-19 pandemic and the invasion of Ukraineby Russia.
