Praise for The Arab Spring
The best general book on the Arab Spring. Covers all the ground. Makes all the necessary distinctions between the popular uprisings. And draws many useful lessons. Roger Owen, Harvard University
A solid volume that sheds further light on the Arab uprisings. Students will find this book empirically rich and analytically rigorous. A welcome addition to the literature on the most significant peaceful collective action in the modern history of the Middle East. Fawaz A. Gerges, Professor of International Relations at the London School of Economics and author of Contentious Politics in the Middle East: Popular Resistance and Marginalized Activism beyond the Arab Uprisings
The Arab Spring unexpectedly developed in late 2010 with peaceful protests in a number of Arab countries against long-standing, entrenched regimes, and rapid political upheaval across the region ensued. With contributions from noted scholars, The Arab Spring provides a comprehensive overview of the causes, the key events, and the aftermath of these revolutions. Divided into two parts, the book first examines the Arab countries directly involved and most dramatically impacted by the uprisings, as well as why some of their Arab neighbors avoided large-scale revolutions. The second part explores other countriesboth in and outside of the regionthat have a stake and interest in the uprisings.
The second edition has been thoroughly updated to include coverage of developments in the Middle East and North Africa since 2012 and how they have altered initial assessments of Arab Spring s effects, as well as a brand-new chapter on Iraq. New part introductions and a revised concluding chapter provide contextualization and comparative analysis of the key themes and broader questions. This is an essential volume for students and scholars of the Middle East seeking the fullest understanding of how the uprisings continue to impact the region and the world.
