An eye-opening look at youth in contemporary Egypt, from the role they play in advancing political change to their everyday struggles
In
Youth in Egypt
, Nadine Sika explores the political world of young people in Egypt, focusing on their experiences under authoritarianism. From the reigns of Gamal Abdel Nasser and Anwar Sadat to that of Abdel Fattah el-Sisi, she offers an on-the-ground perspective through the eyes of multiple generations of young people who lived through consecutive periods of political upheaval and state militarization.
Drawing on surveys, interviews, and focus groups, Sika shines a light on youth who have participated in protest movements, civil society organizations, and political parties. She shows us the different opportunities for economic and political participation that exist for them, explaining why young Egyptians may choose to either mobilize against or—surprisingly—in support of the regime.
Sika underscores how youth in Egypt have been regarded as both the “hope of the nation” and a “threat to the nation.”
shines a light on the rising generation of young people that represents Egypt's future and also has significant implications for the broader Middle East and North Africa region.
