Abstract
Tunisia saw during the 19th century widening and more tolerant Muslim, Jew, and Christian cultural boundaries, which promoted trade and strengthened the state. Jews and Christians, holding prestigious governmental and administrative positions within the Tunisian regency, were able to spur a rebirth in the social and civil processes of the country by profoundly shaking the earth that had once welcomed them. Masonry and the journal «al-Mustaquilâ» played an important role in the marketing of Risorgimento values, which were then adopted by local high society, and were both key to revitalizing liberty and independence ideals.
