What were its successes, its failures, and significance in world history? The Arab Revolution of 2011 brings together a broad range of perspectives to explain the causes, processes, and consequences of the revolution of 2011 and its critical implications for the future. The contributors, in this major addition to the sociology of revolutions, step back from the earlier euphoria of the Arab Spring to provide a sober analysis of what is still an ongoing process of upheaval in the Middle East. The essays address the role of national armies and foreign military intervention, the character and structure of old regimes as determinants of peaceful or violent political transformation, the constitutional placement of Islam in post-revolutionary regimes, and the possibilities of supplanting authoritarianism with democracy. The revolution of 2011 is also examined within a broad historical perspective, comparing the dynamics of revolution and counterrevolution in countries such as Tunisia, Egypt, and Libya with such epochal events as the European revolution of 1848 and Russia in 1917. 2023-06-07T05:47:51Z 2023-06-07T05:47:51Z 2015 book 9781438454894 https://library.oapen.org/handle/20.500.12657/63386 eng application/epub+zip Attribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivatives 4.0 International external_content.epub State University of New York Press State University of New York Press a2a9134f-451a-49c3-9b5f-a060536b7cf7 b818ba9d-2dd9-4fd7-a364-7f305aef7ee9 9781438454894 Knowledge Unlatched (KU) State University of New York Press Knowledge Unlatched open access
