Millions took to the streets in revolt: the governments of Tunisia, Egypt, and Libya fell, other regimes remain embattled, and no corner of the region has escaped unchanged. In this informed and accessible book, Lin Noueihed and Alex Warren explain the economic and political roots of the Arab Spring, assess what has been accomplished so far, and consider the many stumbling blocks that confront the Arab nations as they try to shape their futures.Through research, interviews, and a wealth of firsthand experience, the authors explain the unique set of obstacles that endanger stability in each country. They analyze the challenges many Arab nations face in building democratic institutions, finding consensus on political Islam, overcoming tribal divides, and satisfying an insatiable demand for jobs. In an era of change and uncertainty, this insightful guide provides the first clear glimpse of the post-revolutionary future the Arab Spring set in motion. 606 $aArab Spring, 2011 606 $aRevolutions$zArab countries$xHistory$y21st century 606 $aProtest movements$zArab countries$xHistory$y21st century 606 $aDemocracy$zArab countries 607 $aArab countries$xPolitics and government$y21st century 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aArab Spring, 2011. 615 0$aRevolutions$xHistory 615 0$aProtest movements$xHistory 615 0$aDemocracy 676 $a909/.097492708312 700 $aNoueihed$b Lin$01056762 701 $aWarren$b Alex$01056763 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910461277503321 996 $aThe battle for the Arab Spring$92491373 997 $aUNINA
