Description
"A collection of essays examining the underlying causes of 2011's Arab uprisings in Tunisia, Egypt, Bahrain, Syria, and Yemen. The 2011 eruptions of popular discontent across the Arab world, popularly dubbed the Arab Spring, were local manifestations of a regional mass movement for democracy, freedom, and human dignity. Authoritarian regimes were either overthrown or put on notice that the old ways of oppressing their subjects would no longer be tolerated. These essays from Middle East Report -- the leading source of timely reporting and insightful analysis of the region -- cover events in Tunisia, Egypt, Bahrain, Syria, and Yemen. Written for a broad audience of students, policymakers, media analysts, and general readers, the collection reveals the underlying causes of the revolts by identifying key trends during the last two decades leading up to the recent insurrections. "This is easily the best volume on the Arab uprisings yet published. The material is very strong and accessibly written, providing rich background on the political and economic contexts in the region prior to the uprisings as well as after the events of 2011 unfolded, based on substantive knowledge.... Ideal for students, policymakers, and general readers." -- Jillian Schwedler, University of Massachusetts "For anyone trying to understand the processes of popular revolt and mechanisms of repression, The Arab Revolts is a good place to start." -- Anthropology of Contemporary Middle-East and Central Eurasia "This excellent collection of articles from Middle East Report provides an unusually deep and wide analysis of the phenomena collectively known as the Arab Spring.... The articles are well written and accessible to students, as well as to general readers, and hold much interest to specialists in Middle East politics as well." -- Review of Middle East Studies "The editors of this exceptionally well-conceptualized collection have chosen writings that complement each other well. Each section begins with the present-day situation, and the subsequent essays describe the historical background of mass protests. At the end of each section is a writing that connects the historical themes back to the modern protest movements." -- Against the Current"--,Provided by Freading.
