These groups include: The Muslim Brotherhood, Al-Wasat party, Tagammu, Wafd, Al-Ghad, and Karama. It examines groups across ideological, generational, legal, and Islamist and secular divides. It finds that while all organizations studied call for democracy they do not all behave democratically internally. This calls into question whether they will support democratic institutions.
