The American University in Cairo Government and Politics in Egypt
The American University in Cairo Government and Politics in Egypt Fall-2016 Instructor: Ashraf El Sherif Monday-Thursday 3:35-4:55 pm WALEED C148 Office hours: Monday-Thursday 12:30-2:00 pm Office: HUSS 2027 Email: [email protected] Course Objective This course offers a historical and thematic analysis of the nature and dynamics of modern Egyptian politics including the state institutions, civil-military relations, parliaments and political parties, ideology and political economy. The objective of this course is to study the evolution of Egypt's political institutions, processes and dynamics highlighting its elements of continuity and change. The first part of the course will be chronological, intended to give students a basic knowledge of the history and evolution of Egyptian political institutions. The course will start by searching state origins in Mohammed Ali's time and the regime's origins in Nasser's time. We will then proceed to Sadat's period that constituted the backdrop of the Mubarak's periods that will form the second part of the course.. The second part will be thematic, in which we will deepen our knowledge of some key political issues facing Egypt today that have led Egypt to the 2011 revolution and shape its post 2011 political arena till the reconsolidation of authoritarianism in the post- 2013 era. Such themes will include but are not limited to the following:, the rise of the second republic, civil participation, social movements, civil society, ideological actors, the role of the military, parliamentary elections, presidential elections and the evolving legal structure. The last part of the course will highlight the 2011 revolution and its political impacts including the counter-revolution and re- consolidation of state authoritarianism under General Abdel-Fattah al-Sisi and the military rule. -
The Politics of Neglect the Egyptian State in Cairo, 1974-98
THE POLITICS OF NEGLECT THE EGYPTIAN STATE IN CAIRO, 1974-98 W. Judson Dorman A THESIS SUBMITTED FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY (PHD) SCHOOL OF ORIENTAL AND AFRICAN STUDIES (SOAS) UNIVERSITY OF LONDON 2007 DECLARATION The work presented in this thesis is my own. All sources used are indicated in the footnotes and the References section, and all assistance received has been gratefully noted in the Acknowledgements. Any errors of fact, interpretation and presentation remain my own. W. Judson Dorman Date 2 ABSTRACT This thesis examines state-society relations in Egypt, and the logic of durable authoritarianism since 1952. It does so, through an examination of the Egyptian state’s neglectful rule, from the 1970s through the 1990s, of its capital Cairo. In particular, the thesis focuses on state inaction vis-à-vis Cairo’s informal housing sector: those neighbourhoods established on land not officially sanctioned for urbanization. Since the early 1990s—when Islamist militants used them to launch attacks on the Mubarak government—such communities have been stigmatized in Egyptian public discourse as threats to the nation’s social, moral and political health. Western scholars, by contrast, have valorized them as exemplifying popular agency. The central research question of the thesis is to explain why the Egyptian state has been unable to intervene effectively in these informal neighbourhoods—despite the apparent challenges they pose, the authoritarian state’s considerable unilateral power and the availability of western assistance. The short answer to the question, is that the very factors which sustain the authoritarian political order constrain the Egyptian state’s ability to intervene in its capital. -
The Emergence of the American University Abroad Kyle A. Long
The Emergence of the American University Abroad Kyle A. Long Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy under the Executive Committee of the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY 2018 © 2018 Kyle A. Long All rights reserved ABSTRACT The Emergence of the American University Abroad Kyle A. Long This dissertation explores the relations of independent American universities abroad to one another and to American higher education through a mixed-method comparative case study of three eras (1919-1945; 1946-1990; 1991-2017). Applying insights from the study of organizations and social movements, it investigates 1) the formation, evolution, and eventual maturation of an organizational field of American universities abroad; and 2) the strategies field actors utilize to align frames about American universities abroad with values of potential supporters in the United States. The study employs both qualitative and quantitative methods to analyze data that come from archives, news media, institutional websites, interviews, and an original database. Findings have implications for study of international higher education, American higher education, and American foreign relations. I argue that over the course of a century, the American university abroad has emerged as a distinct institution and structural feature of American higher education. Episodic cooperation among various American universities abroad has served to organize the field to the extent that its “rules” eventually became institutionalized. Instances of continuity and change in the field’s rules are often the result of pressures emanating from U.S. higher education and foreign policies. Meanwhile, the field of American universities abroad, representing the frontier of American higher education, has continually enlarged the latter’s boundaries with each successive period of global expansion. -
