Pathways to Incremental Civic Revolution in Egypt and Beyond

• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

Delta Democracy tells the story of how Egyptian NGOs and philanthropic foundations promoted democratic political reform in Egypt in the years since the Arab Spring. Taking the reader inside the walls of Egypt's NGOs and foundations, the book explains how everyday Egyptians understand the concept of democracy and reveals how civic organizations struggled through political and economic turmoil to promote it. The book offers theoretical lessons about how NGOs promote political reform in autocracies and offers concrete policy recommendations for the reform of US democracy aid.
