From 2010, the Arab world faced a an uprising movement calling for Political freedom and Political change in the Arab world. Someone called these revolutionary events “Arab Spring,” and the phrase stuck. The specificity of these Arab revolutions is that they have been popular uprisings, leaderless and uncompromising in demanding total change. Why have the events in Tunisia, Egypt, Libya, Yemen, Syria, etc. followed such different paths? What are the long-term political, social, and economic ramifications of these revolutions? What are their intended and unintended consequences as countries across the region seek political and social reforms? What's the future of the Arab revolution with regard to the crucial issues of freedom, democracy, and fidelity to Islam, secularism, and tribal power? This work is not a self-minded work, i have reviewed the work of many writers and gave what i think is helpful to understand the phenomenon.
16. “I have added no comment to this slide. I left it blank expressly for you to think
and share your opinion. Was the Arab Spring a civil revolution or an
International plot for regimes changes in the Arab world? Was it an imperialist
war? I know you have enough to say” Richie
