'Egyptians in Revolt' investigates the political economy of the Egyptian labor and student movements. Using elements of social movement theory within a broad political economy framework, it assesses labor and student mobilizations in four eras of contemporary Egyptian history: the pre-1952 Era, the Nasser Era, the Sadat Era, and the Mubarak Era.
'Egyptians in Revolt' examines how both movements responded to the political economy pressures of the respective eras. It argues that political opportunities and threats have had a significant impact on both student and labor mobilizations. The book also looks at how the movements have, at times, been able to affect government policies.
Dr. Adel Abdel Ghafar is a joint fellow at the Brookings Doha Center and Qatar University, specializing in political economy. He holds a Ph.D. in Political Science and International Relations from the Australian National University.
