Authoritarian leaders who had long resisted meaningful political reform in the region were either ousted or faced the prospect of political or even physical demise. The downfall of long-standing dictators as they confronted determined protesters was a clear indication that democratic change was within reach. However, over the past decade, the Arab world has witnessed the resurgence of authoritarian regimes, the waning momentum of pro-democracy movements, and conflicts between the former and the latter involving regional and international powers. This volume seeks to shed light on how relevant political actors in Arab countries, including regimes, opposition movements, and external actors, have adapted ten years after the Arab Spring. It includes contributions on Egypt, Morocco, Kuwait, Saudi Arabia, Syria, Algeria, Sudan, Lebanon, Iraq, Jordan, Yemen, and Tunisia. Additionally, it features studies on the respective roles of the United States, China, Iran, and Turkey in shaping political change and stability in the Arab region, as well as a study analyzing the role of Saudi Arabia and its allies in undermining revolutionary movements in other countries.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 363g\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 229 x 152 (mm)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9780472055371\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Lisa Blaydes,Amr Hamzawy,Hesham Sallam","offers":[{"title":"Paperback \/ softback","offer_id":44397525008634,"sku":"9780472055371","price":34.17,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/1690546379624_book.jpg?v=1690563390","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/struggles-for-political-change-in-the-arab-world-regimes-oppositions-and-external-actors-after-the-spring-9780472055371","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
