In this ground-breaking work, Gerasimos Tsourapas examines how
migration and political power are inextricably linked, and enhances
our understanding of how authoritarian regimes rely on labour
emigration across the Middle East and the Global South. Dr
Tsourapas identifies how autocracies develop strategies to tie
cross-border mobility to their own survival, highlighting domestic
political struggles and the shifting regional and international
landscape. In Egypt, the ruling elite has long shaped labour
emigration policy in accordance with internal and external tactics
aimed at regime survival. Dr Tsourapas draws on a wealth of
previously-unavailable archival sources in Arabic and English, as
well as extensive original interviews with Egyptian elites and
policy-makers in order to produce a novel account of authoritarian
politics in the Arab world. The book offers a new insight into the
evolution and political rationale behind regime strategies towards
migration, from Gamal Abdel Nasser's 1952 Revolution to the 2011
Arab Uprisings.
