Eventually, it led to cracking down on the protests with excessive force, which caused tremendous human suffering, destruction, and also escalation of extreme insurgency. The author analyzes major literary and artistic works from Egypt, Syria and Tunisia, and their political context. This monograph will be helpful to scholars and students in the growing field of Middle Eastern and North African Studies and everyone who is interested in the politics of MENA. 410 0$aMiddle East Today,$x2945-7025 606 $aMiddle East$xPolitics and government 606 $aAfrica$xPolitics and government 606 $aReligion and politics 606 $aPeace 606 $aMiddle Eastern Politics 606 $aAfrican Politics 606 $aPolitics and Religion 606 $aPeace and Conflict Studies 615 0$aMiddle East$xPolitics and government. 615 0$aAfrica$xPolitics and government. 615 0$aReligion and politics. 615 0$aPeace. 615 14$aMiddle Eastern Politics. 615 24$aAfrican Politics. 615 24$aPolitics and Religion. 615 24$aPeace and Conflict Studies. 676 $a709.22 676 $a909.097492708312 700 $aIsmat$b Riad$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$01057789 801 0$bMiFhGG 801 1$bMiFhGG 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910338041103321 996 $aArtists, Writers and The Arab Spring$92494523 997 $aUNINA
