Autocratic Parliament

Více o knize

The book explores the significance of the 2010 protests in Egypt, sparked by perceived electoral fraud, by examining the role of the parliamentary system. Weipert-Fenner challenges the belief that autocratic parliaments are merely symbolic, presenting evidence that they can serve as indicators and catalysts for political change within authoritarian regimes. This long-term analysis offers a fresh perspective on the dynamics of modern Egyptian politics and the potential influence of parliamentary institutions in fostering democratic movements.
