Introduction: revolution and counter-revolution in Egypt

Cemal Burak Tansel and Brecht De Smet

Review of African Political Economy, 2018, vol. 45, issue 155, 85-90

Abstract: This introduction to the ROAPE debate reasserts the centrality of revolutionary theory to understand the dynamics of social and political struggles in contemporary Middle East and North Africa. Framed around the conceptual and political interventions brought about by Brecht De Smet’s Gramsci on Tahrir (2016), we discuss the utility of Gramscian concepts in explaining the trajectories of social mobilisations in the peripheries of global capitalism.
