Aside from large-scale civic mobilisations, no force was more
critical to the outcomes of the 2011 Arab uprisings than the armed
forces. Nearly a decade after these events, we see militaries
across the region in power, once again performing critical roles in
state politics. Taking as a point of reference five case studies
where uprisings took place in 2011, Tunisia, Egypt, Libya, Yemen
and Syria, Philippe Droz-Vincent explores how these armies were
able to install themselves for decades under enduring authoritarian
regimes, how armies reacted to the 2011 Uprisings, and what role
they played in the post-Uprising regime re-formations or collapses.
Devoting a chapter to monarchical armies with a special focus on
Saudi Arabia and the UAE, Droz-Vincent addresses whether monarchies
radically differ from republics, to compare the foundational role
of Arab armies in state building, in the Arab world and beyond.
