Al-Ahram published that the turnout in the runoff polls was 39%, excluding the results of five constituencies; one in Cairo and the others are in Alexandria and Asyut. Abd al-Muizz said that the elections results at the first constituency in Cairo were annulled. He added that elections were suspended in Mahram Beik in Alexandria and Dayrout and al-Fath in Upper Egyptian Asyut governorate.

In the press conference after the results announcing, Abd al-Muizz Ibrahim reported on the positive international reactions to the first phase elections. The Freedom and Justice Party established a communication center to reply to voters’ inquiries about all election-related matters all over Egypt, regardless of their political leanings. 6 In a related context, the Muslim Brotherhood denied what was rumored about alleged funds received by the group from some Arabic Gulf countries. Karim Radwan, in charge of the Muslim Brotherhood Administrative Office in East Cairo, claimed that some political players in Egypt receive foreign funds and try to tarnish the image of the Muslim Brotherhood. He added that the Freedom and Justice’s candidate in Qasr al-Nil constituency lost in the elections mainly because of the Egyptian expatriates, mostly in Qatar. Al-Ahram highlighted artists’ and intellectuals’ fear of the Islamist lead in the Parliament. Al-Ahram’s Ahmad argali and Karimah Abd al-Ghani interviewed Abd al-Muizz Ibrahim, who criticized the random rumors against the High Elections Commission. Ibrahim said the commission received no official complaints of using religious slogans in the electoral campaigns. He said that’s it was not the High Elections Commission’s authority to deal with the continuing campaigns in front of the polling stations. He also said that it was not the High Elections Commission to deal with violations related to bribing voters. Ibrahim said the commission received reports about some foreign funds to support the campaigns. He said that all the people who would be proven to have received foreign funds would be tried.

Elections for the People’s Assembly, Egypt’s lower house of parliament, were completed in January 2012, with nearly 70 percent of the new chamber held by Islamist parties that were illegal before the ouster of authoritarian president Hosni Mubarak in early 2011. However, the People’s Assembly was dismissed in mid-June, after various electoral FREEDOM RATING laws were ruled unconstitutional in what many described as a power struggle between the judiciary and the political establishment. Mohamed Morsi of the Muslim Brotherhood won a presidential runoff later in June, and in November he claimed extensive executive powers in a decree that CIVIL LIBERTIES he defended as necessary to ensure the adoption of a new constitution in a chaotic political environment. The resulting constitution, which opponents criticized as a highly problematic document written by an unrepresentative and overwhelmingly Islamist constituent assembly, was POLITICAL RIGHTS approved in a mid-December referendum, but its passage failed to quell deep mistrust and tensions between liberal and Islamist political factions at year’s end. Egypt formally gained independence from Britain in 1922 and acquired full sovereignty in 1952. After leading a coup that overthrew the monarchy, Colonel Gamal Abdel Nasser ruled until his death in 1970.

  • Dear Friends
    Dear Friends, Greetings from the Project on Middle East Democracy! Last week, Syrian violence and repression continued as Secretary Clinton announced President Assad had lost his legitimacy. Secretary Clinton also announced U.S. recognition of the Transitional National Council in Libya. Analysts debated the legitimacy of the National Dialogue in Bahrain amidst continued government repression. Meanwhile, popular frustration continues to mount in Egypt at the slow pace of reform. Look for next week to be dominated by increased international pressure on President Assad in Syria, as well as working toward a negotiated settlement in Libya.

  • African Football Labor Migrants in Egypt
    School of Humanities and Social Sciences Molding and Moving Bodies in a Neoliberal World: African Football Labor Migrants in Egypt A Thesis Submitted to The Department of Sociology, Anthropology, Psychology, and Egyptology In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements For the Degree of Master of Arts In Sociology – Anthropology By Andrea Groves Under the supervision of Dr. Joseph Hill September 2011 Abstract Egypt has a large profitable football industry that increasingly attracts the attention of both football agents wanting to earn income from another market and sub-Saharan football players hoping to further a career by using Egypt as an intermediary between their home countries and Europe. The labor migration of sub-Saharan football players to Egypt has been enabled mainly by neoliberal, market-orientated changes adopted by FIFA, the CAF, the European Union, and the Egyptian football industry itself. Yet more importantly it is the individual actors that implement and take advantage of these hegemonic spheres of influence. This thesis explores how these individual actors and sub-Saharan football players have negotiated the neoliberal project. Specifically it shows the changes brought by localized mutations of neoliberalism as well as its continuities how they affect the ways in which sub-Saharan football players in Egypt move, work, and live. ii Acknowledgments First of all, I would like to thank my thesis advisor Professor Joseph Hill for listening, teaching, and advising me through out this research. I would not have been able to complete this thesis without his guidance. I would also like to thank Professor Mark Westmoreland for his enthusiasm, belief in this subject, and his honesty.
