The upheaval led to a sequence of events in Egypt that scarcely anyone could have predicted, and precious few have understood: five years on, the status of Egypt's unfinished revolution remains shrouded in confusion. Power shifted hands rapidly, first from protesters to the army leadership, then to the politicians of the Muslim Brotherhood, and then back to the army. The politics of the street has given way to the politics of Islamist-military detentes and the undoing of the democratic experiment. Meanwhile, a burgeoning Islamist insurgency occupies the army in Sinai and compounds the nation's sense of uncertainty. A Revolution Undone blends analysis and narrative, charting Egypt's journey from Tahrir to Sisi from the perspective of an author and analyst who lived it all. H.A. Hellyer brings his first-hand experience to bear in his assessment of Egypt's experiment with protest and democracy. And by scrutinizing Egyptian society and public opinion, Islamism and Islam, the military and government, as well as the West's reaction to events, Hellyer provides a much-needed appraisal of Egypt's future prospects. 606 $aPolitics and government$2fast$3(OCoLC)fst01919741 607 $aEgypt$xHistory$yProtests, 2011-2013 607 $aEgypt$xPolitics and government$y21st century 608 $aHistory.$2fast 615 7$aPolitics and government. 676 $a962.05/6 700 $aHellyer$b H.A$01747421 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910164930903321 996 $aRevolution Undone: Egypt's Road Beyond Revolt$94179501 997 $aUNINA
