On January 25, 2011, the world's eyes were on Egypt's Tahrir Square
as millions of people poured into the city center to call for the
resignation of president Hosni Mubarak. Since then, few scholars or
journalists have been given the opportunity to reflect on the
nationwide moment of transformation and the hope that was embodied
by the Egyptian Revolution. In this important and necessary volume,
leading Egyptian academics and writers share their eyewitness
experiences. They examine how events unfolded in relation to key
social groups and institutions such as the military, police, labor,
intellectuals, Coptic Christians, and the media; share the mood of
the nation; assess what happened when three recent regimes of
Egyptian rule came to an end; and account for the dramatic rise and
fall of the Muslim Brotherhood. The contributors' deep engagement
with politics and society in their country is evident and sets this
volume apart from most of what has been published in English about
the Arab Spring. The diversity of views brought together here is a
testament to the contradictions and complexities of historical and
political changes that affect Egypt and beyond.
