Atlantic Council Who Is Participating in Egypt's Parliamentary Elections? Atlantic Council Who is Participating in Egypt's Parliamentary Elections? *February 20, 2015 With the High Elections Commission (HEC) closing the door to candidate registration, over 5,000 Egyptians have applied to run in the upcoming parliamentary elections slated for March 22. 3,514 applied to run as independent candidates, while 1,539 applied to run on a party list. Of the 5,000 applicants, only 212 are women. As the date nears, at least nine coalitions are gearing up to run in the elections. Parties continue to change allegiances, moving from one coalition to another, choosing to run alone, or even deciding to boycott the elections. The following coalitions will be competing in the elections. To view how parties have switched from one coalition to another. EGYPTIAN FRONT COALITION (TAHALUF AL-GABHA AL-MASREYA) The Egyptian Front Coalition was formed in August 2014, with the alliance announcing it will operate under collective leadership. Several of the parties in the alliance have strong ties to the Mubarak regime, including Ahmed Shafiq, Mubarak’s last Prime Minister, former Interior Minister Ahmed Gamal al-Din, and Nabil Dibis, a businessman and former member of the now-defunct National Democratic Party. Members: Egyptian National Movement (Al Haraka al Wataneya al Masreya) Modern Egypt Party (Misr al-Haditha) Republican People’s Party (Hizb al Shab al Gomhory) My Homeland Egypt Party (Misr Balady) Egyptian Federation of Trade Unions (EFTU) General Syndicate of Farmers Professional Syndicates Union Geel (Generation) Party The Tagammu, Ghad, and Conference parties withdrew from the Egyptian Front coalition in December. The alliance was also coordinating with Kamal al-Ganzouri to place at least twenty public figures on his list, before it collapsed. The Egyptian Front is currently in negotiations with the Wafd Party and the For the Love of Egypt Alliance. FOR THE LOVE OF EGYPT (FI HOB MISR) For the Love of Egypt (FLE) is led by former army official Sameh Seif al-Yazal. Yazal served both in the military and general intelligence services. The formation of the FLE alliance was unexpected, and the group has been accused of acting as a replacement for Ganzouri’s list. Among the parties that expressed reservations over the FLE list were the Wafd Party and the Geel Party, which belongs to the Egyptian Front. The Page 1 of 7 individual members of the alliance are said to have been selected by Yazal. Conflicting reports emerged this week on whether or not the Conference Party, founded by Amr Moussa, has joined the For the Love of Egypt list. Members: Free Egyptians Party (Hizb al Misreyeen al Ahrar) Tagammu Party (National Progressive Unionist Party) Mostaqbal Misr (Egypt’s Future) Tamarod (Rebellion Movement) Al Gomhoreya al-Thaletha (Third Republic Movement) Federation of Egyptian Workers The FLE alliance also has many prominent names running on its list, among them: FEP member Emad Gad Former Wafd Member of Parliament Margaret Azer Mona Mounir, a political female activist and former leading FEP member Osama Heikal, former minister of information and chairman of the Media Production City Mahmoud Badr; founding member of the Tamarod movement, Tarek al-Khouli; former spokesperson for April 6 Youth Movement Mohamed Farag Amer; Alexandria's industrialist tycoon Zaki al-Swedey; Business tycoon Wagih Abaza; Automobile magnate Sahar Talaat Mostafa, sister of the Mubarak-era businessmen Hisham Talaat Mostafa. Lamis Gaber; Writer Taher Abu Zeid; Sports commentator Ahmed Saeed; Ahly Club vice-chief INDEPENDENT CURRENT COALITION (TAYYAR AL ISTIQLAL) The pro-Sisi coalition was formed by the Independence Current, a party formed in 2012 as an opposition alliance to the then-ruling Mohamed Morsi. The coalition came together again in June 2014. It was also backing Ganzouri’s list before its collapse. The Independence Current is headed by Judge Ahmed Fadali. He was accused of playing a role in the attack on anti-Mubarak protesters in 2011, when thugs descended on the square riding camels and horses, in what has now become known as the Camel Battle. Kamal al-Helbawy, a former member of the Muslim Brotherhood’s Guidance Bureau, is also involved in the coalition. Helbawy left the group in 2011 in protest against its decision to field a presidential candidate. The Independence Current is reported to include a total of thirty-six parties and forty-two coalitions. Its members will run on four lists, with another 300 running as independent candidates. Among its members are: Independence Current Democratic Peace Party (Al Salam al Dimuqrati) Revolutionary Forces Bloc Page 2 of 7 Nasserist Party Tourism Workers Syndicate Al-Entemaa' Al Masry Party Al Mostaqbal al-Gedeed (New Future) Party Damietta Federation of Independent Workers After the collapse of Amr Moussa’s alliance, spokesperson Abdel Nabi Abdel Sattar called for Moussa to lead the coalition EGYPTIAN WAFD ALLIANCE (AL WAFD AL-MASRY) The Egyptian Wafd Alliance has seen much upheaval in the past few months. Led by the Wafd Party, several parties have withdrawn from the coalition or shied away from joining, among them the Tagammu Party, and the Egyptian Social Democratic Party. Most recently in February, however, the Ghad Party, the Adl Party, and the Conference Party all came together to join the Wafd Party for the upcoming elections. Within two weeks of joining the alliance, the Adl Party announced its intention to boycott the elections. The future of the Wafd alliance remains uncertain, with reports emerging that its leading party, the Wafd, plans to join the For the Love of Egypt list. The Egyptian Front has also reportedly joined forces with the Egyptian Wafd Alliance and the Conference Party for a joint electoral list in Upper Egypt. Members: Wafd (Delegation) Party Mo’tamar (Conference) Party (Unclear if the party has left the coalition) Ghad (Tomorrow) Party Adl (Justice) Party Reform and Development Misruna Party (Islah wel tanmeya) Conservative Party (Al Mohafzeen) Consciousness/Awareness (Wa’ay) Party Arab Alliance Party Arab Party for Justice and Equality Reform and Renaissance Party National Partnership Current (Tayar al-Sharaka) Pioneer (Al Reyada) Party Federation of Egyptian Workers Abroad EGYPT’S RENAISSANCE (SAHWAT MISR) Sometimes also referred to as Egypt’s Reawakening, the alliance was founded by Abdel Gelil Moustafa, a former member of the constituent assembly tasked with drafting Egypt’s constitution. The coalition has explicitly stated that it excludes all members of the NDP and the Muslim Brotherhood. Members: Civil Democratic Current National Bloc Mostaqbal Watan Party Masr Gaya Front Egyptian Social Democratic Party Socialist Party of Egypt Page 3 of 7 The coalition also includes many prominent figures, among them: Ahmed Boraie, former Minister of Social Justice George Ishaq, a leading member of the Kefaya Movement Mona Zulfaqar, a law professor Galal Amin, an economist Mervat Tallawy, the head of the National Council for Women SOCIAL JUSTICE COALITION (TAHALUF AL-ADALA AL IGTIMA’EYA) The Leftist/Nasserist coalition was formed in December, 2014, and is made up of over twenty parties and movements. The alliance’s platform includes abolishing the protest law, rejecting US aid to Egypt, and conducting speedy corruption trials. Among its prominent members are: National Association for Change (Al Gam’aiya Al Wataneya Lil Taghyeer) Nasserist People's Congress Party (Hezb al-Motamar al-Sha’by al Nassery) Nasserist National Accord Party (Hezb al-Wefaq a-Qawmy al-Nassery) Knights of Egypt Party (Hezb Fersan Misr) Egyptian Liberation Party (Al Tahrir al-Masry) The Egyptian Communist Party, the Equality and Development Party and the Kenana Party withdrew from the alliance, accusing the senior coordinator of the alliance, Gamal Zahran, of dictating rules from above. LONG LIVE EGYPT COALITION (TAHYA MISR) Founded by Major General Abdel-Rafia Darwish in August 2014, the Long Live Egypt coalition is a pro-Sisi alliance. Made up of fifty-eight parties, it also includes several retired military officials. Among the fifty-eight parties and movements on the list are: New Dawn Party (Al Fagr al Gedeed) International Association for Human Rights and Anti-corruption African Arab Center, Egypt Armed Forces Retirees Coalition Arab Revolutionary Council for Human Rights and Development Cairo University Staff Cairo Youth Coalition Independent Ecologists Syndicate Egyptian Council for Egypt’s Farmers Information Personnel Independent Journalism staff Syndicate Qena Youth Coalition Sharqiya Youth Coalition Physically Challenged Coalition Dignitaries Syndicate Cairo Coptic Youth Coalition Theater personnel Coalition POPULAR LONG LIVE EGYPT COALITION (Tahya Masr al-Sha’by) Founded in August 2014, the Long Live Egypt coalition’s members includes Mohamed al- Orabi as its general coordinator, as well as former Mubarak-era Prime Minister Ali Lutfi. Page 4 of 7 Many of its members are former ministers as well as retired police and military generals. The alliance members will run as independents. Prominent members include: Mohamed Nour Farahat, judge and constitutional expert Mustafa al-Fiqi, a political thinker and former MP Yehia al-Gammal, former Deputy Prime Minister Major General Naguib Abdel Salam Rashdan, former head of the Republican Guard Major General Hussein Kamel, former head of Omar Suleiman’s office NIDAA MISR (CALL OF EGYPT) The Nidaa Misr coalition has taken a page from Tunisia, emulating the Nidaa

  • First: One-Party Rule (1953-1976)
    Emergence of the political parties in Egypt in the 19th century was a reflection of social, eco- nomic and cultural interactions as well as certain historical, national and political circum- stances, leading to the creation and development of modern institutions of government adminis- tration and society in Egypt such as the parliament, the cabinet, political parties, syndicates, etc. Emergence of the political parties in Egypt has been gradual and gone through successive stages. Political parties have firstly been formed as secret societies that were followed by formation of political groups. The National Democratic Party (NDP) was the first party formed in 1907 by Mostafa Kamel. In less than ten years, there was a great variety in these parties; in their nature, formation, organization, power, their popular base and platforms. There were national parties, groups dom- inated by the royal palace, others formed by the occupation authority as well as ideological par- ties expressing certain ideologies. In 1907-1920, the already formed political parties in Egypt were a starting signal for the dis- semination of political parties in Egypt; however, they were restricted due to the British occupa- tion and the Egyptian subordination to the Ottoman Empire. The February 1922 Declaration acknowledging Egypt’s independence and the issuance of the 1923 Constitution have led to establishing a royal constitutional rule based on party pluralism and principles of liberal democracy. During 1923-1952, Egypt witnessed a remarkable experience rich in political and democratic practices, however, such an experience was marked with many defects such as the British occu- pation, foreign intervention in Egypt’s affairs and the royal palace’s interference in political life.

  • The Muslim Brotherhood Fol- Lowing the “25 Janu- Ary Revolution”
    Maria Dolores Algora Weber CEU San Pablo University THE MUSLIM BROTHERHOOD FOL- LOWING THE “25 JANU- ARY REVOLUTION”: FROM THE IDEALS OF THE PAST TO THE POLITICAL CHAL- LENGES OF THE PRESENT In the framework of the Arab Spring, as the wave of social mobilisation of 2011 has come to be known, the revolutions in Tunisia and Egypt marked the beginning of a process which has deeply transformed the re- ality of many countries in the Arab World. In Egypt, the events that took place in Tahrir Square not only put an end to President Mubarak's dic- tatorship, but also paved the way for new political actors, among which the Muslim Brotherhood has played a key role. During the subsequent transition, the Brotherhood gained control of the National Assembly and positioned their leader, Mohamed Mursi, as the new President. The present debate is focused on the true democratic vocation of this move- ment and its relationship with the other social forces inside Egypt and beyond. This article intends to address these issues. To that end, it begins with an explanation as to the ideological and political evolution of the Muslim Brotherhood and its internal changes brought about by the end of the previous regime, closing with an analysis of its transnational influ- ence and the possible international aftermaths. Islam, Islamism, Muslim Brotherhood, Egypt, Arab Spring 181 INTRODUCTION n 2011, a wave of social mobilisations took place in various Arab countries and which came to be known as the “Arab Spring”. This name is undoubtedly an at- tempt to draw a comparison between the historic process that unfolded in Europe Iin the mid-nineteenth century and the events that have taken place in the Arab World.

  • THE ROAD to ENHANCED INTERNATIONAL DIALOGUE an Arab Perspective HE Amr Moussa Oxford Centre for Islamic Studies
    Oxford Centre for Islamic Studies THE ROAD TO ENHANCED INTERNATIONAL DIALOGUE an Arab perspective a lecture given in the Examination Schools, Oxford on 9 November 2001 by HE Amr Moussa Secretary-General of the League of Arab States Dr Nizami, Excellencies, Ladies and Gentlemen: It is a great pleasure for me to be giving this address at the Oxford Centre for Islamic Studies. Eight years ago, before this very institute, HRH The Prince of Wales spoke on Islam and the West. That lecture, with its call for dialogue and mutual understanding between the Islamic and Western worlds, was warmly welcomed throughout the Muslim world. It represented one of the most informed and positive statements by a Western leader about the historical justification for and present necessity of a partnership between the Islamic and Western worlds. It evoked a positive response from governments and people through-out the Arab and Muslim nations. It continues to have direct relevance, especially in the present difficult international situation. Let me also express my appreciation for the efforts this prestigious institute exerts to encourage the study of Islam and the Islamic world. You should take great pride in the fact that your cause and sense of purpose is of immeasurable contribu-tion to world peace and stability. Although we live in what is called the information and communica-tion age, it is paradoxical and sad to note the widespread ignorance about religions and cultures and the rarity of genuine communication between them. It is with great keenness that I come to this institute and to this grand university to address an issue that is received with immense apprehension in our region, and I assume in many circles on the international scene: the issue of clash and/or dia-logue of civilizations.
