One of the the most comprehensive studies that thoroughly examines the Arab popular uprisings of 2011 and 2012. Much has been written on the Arab Spring uprisings since the early months of their outbreak, and due to the hastiness of their publication, some of them may contain shortcomings in analysis, interpretation and general outlook on future events. They are nonetheless valuable resources documenting real life events that occurred during the uprisings.
This book contains a collection of in-depth studies on the causes and the main drivers of the Arab Spring uprisings and their effects on the overall Arab political setting at the national, regional and international levels. It individually addresses each case with respect to each nation’s own internal specificities, as well as in accordance with the mechanisms of popular self-mobilization. The research grounds itself in the analysis of crises of power conflicts, the failures of their economic policies and development programs, and in light of the new types of strategic mobilization that framed those uprisings, especially the youth movements and social media technologies.
