Abstract
The present paper examines the issue of accountability for Muslim Heads of State in the context of the Arab Revolutions. It reviews the efforts that have already been undertaken to hold leaders responsible and suggests that the Arab Uprising has represented a unique opportunity to establish democracy and end the culture of impunity in the Arab world.
