The Arab uprisings of 2011 have sparked much scholarly discussion
with regards to democratisation, the resilience of authoritarian
rule, mobilisation patterns, and the relationship between
secularism and Islam, all under the assumption that politics has
changed for good in North Africa and the Middle East. While
acknowledging the post-2011 transformations taking place in the
region, this book brings to the forefront an understudied, yet
crucial, aspect related to the uprisings, namely the interplay
between continuity and change. Challenging simplified
representations built around the positions that either 'all has
changed' or 'nothing has changed', the in-depth case studies in
this volume demonstrate how elements both of continuity, and
rupture with the past, are present in the post-uprising landscapes
of Morocco, Tunisia and Egypt. Public policy, contentious politics,
the process of institution making and re-making, and the relations
of power connecting national and international economies are at the
core of the comparative investigations included in the book. The
volume makes an important contribution to the study of North
African politics, and to the study of political change and
stability, by contrasting the different trajectories of the
uprisings, and by offering theoretical reflections on their
meaning, consequences and scope. This book was originally published
as a special issue of the British Journal of Middle Eastern
Studies.
