This study investigates whether and under which conditions certain forms of cooperation
that are characterised by a degree of structural asymmetry among partners may nonetheless
be considered legitimate. In investigating this question, the study will operate in three
theory-driven sections borrowing from critical theory, post-structuralism and postcolonialism. Each section will provide a brief presentation of the main theoretical arguments
developed by one philosopher, illustrated with extensive direct quotes from relevant original works. This presentation will then be followed by a critical summary. For the sake of illustration, theoretical arguments will then be confronted with empirical observations based on my own participation in the 'Tunisia in Transition' project. Section one
will argue in favour of the possibility of genuinely horizontal argumentative engagement on the basis of Habermas' discourse 'ethics' and theory of communicative action. By contrast, section two will introduce Foucault’s genealogical account of the power/knowledge interplay to reject the possibility of discursive spaces that would be in a position of exteriority
