By examining the system of authoritarianism in eight Arab
republics, Joseph Sassoon portrays life under these regimes and
explores the mechanisms underpinning their resilience. How did the
leadership in these countries create such enduring systems? What
was the economic system that prolonged the regimes' longevity, but
simultaneously led to their collapse? Why did these seemingly
stable regimes begin to falter? This book seeks to answer these
questions by utilizing the Iraqi archives and memoirs of those who
were embedded in these republics: political leaders, ministers,
generals, security agency chiefs, party members, and business
people. Taking a thematic approach, the book begins in 1952 with
the Egyptian Revolution and ends with the Arab uprisings of 2011.
It seeks to deepen our understanding of the authoritarianism and
coercive systems that prevailed in these countries and the
difficult process of transition from authoritarianism that began
after 2011.
