| Zusammenfassung: | Civil resistance, especially in the form of massive peaceful demonstrations, was at the heart of the Arab Spring-the chain of events in the Middle East and North Africa that erupted in December 2010. It won some notable victories: popular movements helped to bring about the fall of authoritarian governments in Tunisia, Egypt, Libya and Yemen. Yet these apparent triumphs of non-violent action were followed by disasters-wars in Syria, anarchy in Libya and Yemen, reversion to authoritarian rule in Egypt, and counter-revolution backed by external intervention in Bahrain. Looming over these events was the enduring divide between the Sunni and Shi'a branches of Islam. Why did so much go wrong? Was the problem the methods, leadership and aims of the popular movements, or the conditions of their societies? In this book, experts on these countries, and on the techniques of civil resistance, set the events in their historical, social and political contexts. They describe how governments and outside powers-including the US and EU-responded, how Arab monarchies in Jordan and Morocco undertook to introduce reforms to avert revolution, and why the Arab Spring failed to spark a Palestinian one.0 |

Civil resistance, especially in the form of massive peaceful demonstrations,
was at the heart of the Arab Spring—the chain of events in the Middle East
and North Africa that erupted in December 2010. It won some notable victories:
popular movements helped to bring about the fall of authoritarian governments
in Tunisia, Egypt, Libya, and Yemen. Yet these apparent triumphs of non-violent
action were followed by disasters—wars in Syria and Yemen, anarchy in Libya,
reversion to authoritarian rule in Egypt, and counter-revolution backed by
external intervention in Bahrain. Looming over these events was the enduring
divide between the Sunni and Shfa branches of Islam.
Why did so much go wrong? Was the problem the methods, leadership, and
aims of the popular movements, or the conditions of their societies? In this
book, experts on these countries, and on the techniques of civil resistance, set
the events in their historical, social, and political contexts.They describe how
governments and outside powers----including the US and EU----responded, how
Arab monarchies in Jordan and Morocco undertook to introduce reforms to avert
revolution, and why the Arab Spring failed to spark a Palestinian one. They indicate
how and why Tunisia remained, precariously, the country that experienced the
most political change for the lowest cost in bloodshed.
This book provides a vivid illustrated account and rigorous scholarly analysis of the
course and fate, the strengths and the weaknesses, of the Arab Spring. The authors
draw clear and challenging conclusions from these tumultuous events. Above all,
they show how civil resistance aiming at regime change is not enough: building the
institutions and the trust necessary for reforms to be implemented and democracy
to develop is a more difficult but equally crucial task. |
