Rezensionen

"Valeria Resta's book is compulsory reading for scholars, students and professionals interested in Arab politics and comparative politics in general. Not only does this book stand out for providing a lucid analysis of the role of political parties in the success of the democratic transition in Tunisia and its failure in Egypt, but also for helping us understand the consolidation of al-Sisi's authoritarian regime after the 2013 military coup and Kaïs Saied's authoritarian turn that has put an end to the only successful democratic experience in the region after the Arab Uprisings."
