In 2011, the world watched as dictators across the Arab world were
toppled from power. In Tunisia, Egypt, Libya, Yemen, Syria, and
Iraq, ordinary Arab citizens mobilized across the region during the
Arab Spring to reinvent the autocratic Arab world into one
characterized by democracy, dignity, socioeconomic justice, and
inviolable human rights. This unique comparative analysis of
countries before, during and after the Arab Spring seeks to explain
the divergent outcomes, disappointing and even harrowing results of
efforts to overcome democratic consolidation challenges, from the
tentative democracy in Tunisia to the emergence of the Islamic
State, and civil war and authoritarian retrenchment everywhere
else. Tracing the period of the Arab Spring from its background in
long-term challenges to autocratic regimes, to the mass uprisings,
authoritarian breakdown, and the future projections and
requirements for a democratizing conclusion, Stephen J. King
establishes a broad but focused history which refines the leading
theory of democratization in comparative politics, and realigns the
narrative of Arab Spring history by bringing its differing results
to the fore.
