Contestations coptes contemporaines en Égypte

Laure Guirguis

Revue Tiers-Monde, 2011, vol. HS, issue 5, 139-161

Abstract: In this article I will study the changing features of contemporary Coptic activism in Egypt. I will stress the complex interaction between its two antagonistic tendencies, one communitarian, the other universalist. I will shed light on the national and transnational dynamics that stimulate the emergence of new kinds of mobilization as well as on the many ways in which the Egyptian regime reacts to such contests.
