"In this illuminating and original work, Adam Hanieh demonstrates that the Arab Spring rebellions are about much more than democracy. Too often the Arab uprisings have been reduced to a simple expression of mass protest against authoritarian regimes. In an accessible and engaging style, Hanieh shows how an analysis of the specific nature of capitalist development in the Middle East is key to understanding these revolutions"--

Arvustused

“More than three years after the beginning of the uprisings in the Arab world, one is scarcely able to find a commentator with anything good to say about them—least of all one on the Left … Adam Haniehs Lineages of Revolt is a bracing corrective to this sort of thinking and deserves its place on the bookshelves and reading lists of students of the region and activists alike. Both meatily empirical and sharply theoretical, Haniehs book dispatches several of the clichés that inform the study of the political economy of the Arab world … Lineages of Revolt is, in short, a masterful achievement. —Jaime Allinson, WorkingUSA

"Insightful, timely, and welcome...the analytical framework and substantial data he puts forward in the book will help readers map out the current and future processes of regional integration, class formations, and contradictions, and to situate these processes within the wider global political economy." —International Socialist Review More than three years after the beginning of the uprisings in the Arab world, one is scarcely able to find a commentator with anything good to say about themleast of all one on the Left Adam Haniehs Lineages of Revolt is a bracing corrective to this sort of thinking and deserves its place on the bookshelves and reading lists of students of the region and activists alike.
