Tohamy's assertion is that by examining the decade preceding this momentous event, we see that the youth movement far from being inert was extremely active. Tohamy uses the Social Movements Theory to argue how Egyptian youth became a new agent of change in the Middle East. By positioning the youth activists as dynamically engaging with their social and political contexts within a framework of opportunities and constraints, his analysis strikes at the heart of the debates concerning the nature and substance of revolution and its effects on state and society."--Bloomsbury Publishing.Youth protest movementsEgyptYouthPolitical activityEgyptDemonstrations & protest movementsYouth protest movementsYouthPolitical activity305.235305.235096209051Tohamy AhmedUtOrBLWUtOrBLWBOOK9910150290703321Youth activism in Egypt2958993UNINA
