It argues that the notion of marginality masks the true power relations that perpetuate poverty and exclusion. Analysing key areas of Egyptian political economy, the book concludes that marginalization does not mean total exclusion. What is marginalized can play a dynamic part in the future - as is the case with the revolution that toppled Mubarak.Middle East studiesMarginality, SocialEgyptSocial sciencesDevelopment studiesbicsscEgyptPolitics and governmentEgyptSocial conditionsMarginality, SocialSocial sciences.Development studies305.560962Bush RayAyeb HabibEBLCPCaBNVSLCaBNVSLBOOK9910790334503321Marginality and exclusion in Egypt3849364UNINA
