This book identifies the procedures and capabilities that the U.S. Department of Defense, other agencies of the U.S. government, U.S. allies and partners, and international organizations require in order to support the transition from counterinsurgency, when the military takes primary responsibility for security and economic operations, to stability and reconstruction, when police and civilian government agencies take the lead.

Kefaya was an indigenous movement for political reform organized in late
2004 in opposition to the regime of Egyptian President Hosni Mubarak. This
examination of Kefaya's birth, accomplishments, and decline is based on an
analysis of the work of Egyptian scholars and Arabic-language media reports
(including online and new media), as well as structured interviews with
persons associated with and observers of Kefaya and the Muslim Brotherhood.
