Description

The Arab Spring uprisings have been described as a simple expression of mass protest against authoritarian regimes. Adam Hanieh claims that this is more than a cry for democracy. He shows how an analysis of capitalist development in the Middle East is key to understanding these revolutions.

This is not quite the first analysis of the Arab Spring; however, it goes in-depth to examine the political economy of the Middle East. Hanieh's research and findings as presented in Lineages of Revolt will be essential to attaining peace in the Middle East.
