The New Egypt: Socio-political Dynamics and the Prospects of the Transition to Democracy
Abstract
The February 11, 2011 victory of pro-democracy forces has ushered in great hopes for actual political and social changes in Egypt. The military-led long authoritarian rule has come to an end, and Egypt has stepped in a new era of transition to democracy. This paper probes the prospects of democratic transformation in Egypt in light of its unique pre and post-revolutionary social and political dynamics. It argues that Egypt’s transition to democracy largely depends on the chemistry of post-revolutionary socio-political dynamics and how this dynamics keeps unfolding.Downloads
