This book examines the relationship between exile and activism.
Drawing on interviews with activists exiled to England following
the military coup d'etat in Egypt as an illustrative case, it
considers whether exile presents any barrier to meaningful
political participation. Through a comparison of activism in Egypt
with exiled activism in England, the author explores the mechanisms
mediating the changes in the activists' activities, tracing the
conditions for exile in institutions of dictatorship and shedding
light on the process by which activism is decertified and fear of
repression becomes internalised within a movement - a process that
is counteracted in the sanctuary and stability of a host country in
which activist networks are founded and the exile repertoire is
expanded. A significant contribution to social movement theory,
this book will appeal to sociologists and political scientists with
interests in political mobilisation and contentious politics.
