The Arab Uprisings of 2010 and 2011 had a profound effect on labor
politics in the region, with trade unions mobilizing to an extent
never before seen. How did these formerly quiescent trade unions
become militant? What linkages did they make to other social forces
during and after the revolutions? And why did Tunisian unions
emerge cohesive and influential while Egyptian unions were
fractured and lacked influence? Following extensive interviews, Ian
M. Hartshorn answers these questions and assesses how unions forged
alliances, claimed independence, and cooperated with international
groups. Looking at institutions both domestically and
internationally, he traces the corporatist collapse and the role of
global labor in offering training and new possibilities for
disgruntled workers. With special attention to the relationship
with rising Islamist powers, he also examines the ways in which
political parties tried to use labor, and vice versa, and provides
a detailed study of the role of labor in ousting the first Islamist
governments.
