Egyptians started the 2011 revolution to topple a corrupt regime. Many brave souls fought and died in order to bring new dawn and guarantee people's freedom and guarantee democracy and the rule of law. Two years after the landmark January 25, 2011 revolution that toppled Hosni Mubarak from power, the political situation in Egypt has been marked-as much as anything-by divisiveness and polarization. The unity between all political forces that participated in the revolution, liberals and Islamists, broke down almost as soon as Mubarak was removed. The military controlled the country-to almost everyone's dissatisfaction-for over a year and half. The Islamists came to power at the end of June 2012 and now it is the Islamists and the largely secular forces in increasingly angry opposition. Egypt's economy is in very bad shape, prices are much higher than before the revolution, the Egyptian pound is under tremendous pressure, political bickering and fighting is at record high, and security has deteriorated. What went wrong and is there any hope for Egyptian democracy? Egypt Spring, a Rocky Road to Democracy addresses the Egypt Spring that started in January 2011, toppled Mubarak regimes and has been trying to build a new democratic system since then. The book will get into some details of the Egyptian political situation and the many mistakes, committed by all, that caused a very rocky road to democracy. Egypt Spring, a Rocky Road to Democracy addresses the role of education, social justice, and economical development in advancing democracy in Egypt. This book will address important steps needed badly to steer the way through robust and lasting democracy.

In this ground-breaking work, Gerasimos Tsourapas examines how migration and political power are inextricably linked, and enhances our understanding of how authoritarian regimes rely on labour emigration across the Middle East and the Global South. Dr Tsourapas identifies how autocracies develop strategies to tie cross-border mobility to their own survival, highlighting domestic political struggles and the shifting regional and international landscape. In Egypt, the ruling elite has long shaped labour emigration policy in accordance with internal and external tactics aimed at regime survival. Dr Tsourapas draws on a wealth of previously-unavailable archival sources in Arabic and English, as well as extensive original interviews with Egyptian elites and policy-makers in order to produce a novel account of authoritarian politics in the Arab world. The book offers a new insight into the evolution and political rationale behind regime strategies towards migration, from Gamal Abdel Nasser's 1952 Revolution to the 2011 Arab Uprisings.

The field of political demography - the politics of population change - is dramatically underrepresented in political science. At a time when demographic changes - aging in the rich world, youth bulges in the developing world, ethnic and religious shifts, migration, and urbanization - are waxing as never before, this neglect is especially glaring and starkly contrasts with the enormous interest coming from policymakers and the media. "Ten years ago, [demography] was hardly on the radar screen," remarks Richard Jackson and Neil Howe of the Center for Strategic and International Studies, two contributors to this volume. "Today," they continue, "it dominates almost any discussion of America's long-term fiscal, economic, or foreign-policy direction." Demography is the most predictable of the social sciences: children born in the last five years will be the new workers, voters, soldiers, and potential insurgents of 2025 and the political elites of the 2050s. Whether in the West or the developing world, political scientists urgently need to understand the tectonics of demography in order to grasp the full context of today's political developments. This book begins to fill the gap from a global and historical perspective and with the hope that scholars and policymakers will take its insights on board to develop enlightened policies for our collective future.

A poignant, deeply human portrait of Egypt during the Arab Spring, told through the lives of individuals A FINANCIAL TIMES AND AN ECONOMIST BOOK OF THE YEAR 'This will be the must read on the destruction of Egypt's revolution and democratic moment' Sarah Leah Whitson, Middle East director of Human Rights Watch 'Sweeping, passionate ... An essential work of reportage for our time' Philip Gourevitch, author of We Wish to Inform You That Tomorrow We Will Be Killed with Our Families In 2011, Egyptians of all sects, ages and social classes shook off millennia of autocracy, then elected a Muslim Brother as president. New York Times correspondent David D. Kirkpatrick arrived in Egypt with his family less than six months before the uprising first broke out in 2011. As revolution and violence engulfed the country, he lived through Cairo's hopes and disappointments alongside the diverse population of his new city. Into the Hands of the Soldiers is a heartbreaking story with a simple message: the failings of decades of autocratic rule are the reason for the chaos we see across the Arab world. Understanding the story of what happened in those years can help readers make sense of everything taking place across the region today – from the terrorist attacks in North Sinai to the bedlam in Syria and Libya.
