Counterrevolution in Egypt (S. 15, Ep. 10)

from POMEPS Middle East Political Science Podcast · host Marc Lynch

On this week's episode of the podcast, Hossam el-Hamalawy joins Marc Lynch to discuss his new book, Counterrevolution in Egypt: Sisi's New Republic. The book is a rare and comprehensive examination of the structures, hierarchies, and methods of the military, police, and intelligence agencies. Drawing on meticulous research, it reveals the strategies deployed to suppress the revolutionary wave, from propaganda and surveillance to mass arrests, torture, and extrajudicial killings. El-Hamalawy traces the power dynamics within these institutions to show how their uneasy unity was both a response to the revolution and a determinant of its eventual fate.
