Whilst some of these claims may be exaggerated, Sudan was indeed unique in the region at the time in that it witnessed not one but two popular uprisings which successfully uprooted military authoritarianisms. Civil Uprisings in Modern Sudan provides the first scholarly book-length history of the 1964 and 1985 uprisings. It explores the uprisings themselves, their legacy and the contemporary relevance they hold in the context of the current political climate of the Middle East. The book also contends that the sort of politics espoused by various kinds of Islamist during the uprisings can be interpreted as a form of early 'post-Islamism', in which Islamist political agendas were seen to be compatible with liberalism and democracy. Using interviews, Arabic language sources and a wealth of archival material, this book is an important and original study that is of great significance for scholars of African and Middle Eastern political history."--Bloomsbury Publishing. 410 0$aModern history of politics and violence. 606 $aRegime change$zSudan 607 $aSudan$xHistory$y1956- 607 $aSudan$xHistory$yCoup d'E?tat, 1985 607 $aSudan$xPolitics and government$y1956-1985 607 $aSudan$xPolitics and government$y1985- 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aRegime change 676 $a962.404 700 $aBerridge$b W.
