Feminism and the Arab Spring -- Conclusion: final words - "Arab Spring" or "Arab Autumn"? 330 $aThe Arab Spring uprisings were not about gender; these were uprisings demanding rights for all. Yet, they presented a rare opportunity for women to let themselves be heard. And, from being some of the most memorable and lasting leaders of these revolutionary protests, female activists were particularly targeted by many regimes. In A Spring Aborted: How Authoritarianism Violates Women's Rights in the Arab World, leadership expert Yusuf Sidani tracks the contributions of female activists, the reasons for the Arab Spring, and the abuse these leaders suffered. Including analysis of protests across Sudan, Egypt, Syria, Yemen, and Tunisia, Sidani looks at the aims of the protests, and the impact, evaluating whether the changes brought about were deep enough to disrupt governance structures. Finally, Sidani explores how the Arab Spring has been hijacked. From deep divisions among the allies who shaped the Arab Spring, to sheer force and brutality, Sidani analyses the causes of the Spring's disintegration. 410 0$aEmerald points. 606 $aAuthoritarianism$xSocial aspects$zArab countries 606 $aWomen political activists$zArab countries 606 $aArab Spring, 2010-$xSocial aspects 606 $aPolitical Science$xPolitical Ideologies / Fascism & Totalitarianism$2bisacsh 606 $aPolitical structures: totalitarianism & dictatorship$2bicssc 615 0$aAuthoritarianism$xSocial aspects 615 0$aWomen political activists 615 0$aArab Spring, 2010-$xSocial aspects. 615 7$aPolitical Science$xPolitical Ideologies / Fascism & Totalitarianism. 615 7$aPolitical structures: totalitarianism & dictatorship. 676 $a353.00825 700 $aSidani$b Yusuf$01505407 801 0$bUtOrBLW 801 1$bUtOrBLW 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910793884503321 996 $aA spring aborted$93734960 997 $aUNINA
