Egypt's New Authoritarian Republic

Join the Institute for Middle East Studies to welcome editors and contributors Robert Springborg, Nathan Brown, and May Darwich as they discuss their new book, Egypt’s New Authoritarian Republic, with moderator Shana Marshall. Egyptian President Abd al Fattah el-Sisi has sought to create a “New Republic,” a stronger, more authoritarian state capable of positively transforming Egypt’s polity, economy, society, and role in the region and the world. Thus far, success has been elusive. Why? And with what consequences for the regime and the country? These are the two questions at the heart of Egypt’s New Authoritarian Republic. The authors effectively combine an overview of the means by which the Sisi government has increased its power with in-depth studies of how that power is exercised, arguing that the regime’s performance is undermining rather than bolstering its legitimacy.
