Counterrevolution in Egypt

Sisi's New Republic
AN IN-DEPTH INVESTIGATION INTO THE STRUCTURE AND METHODS OF EGYPT'S SECURITY SERVICES IN THEIR WAR ON DISSENT
The agents of coercion in Egypt - its military, police, and intelligence services - have been locked in a perennial struggle for power since their inception. Each institution has vied for dominance, shaping and reshaping the country's political landscape. Yet, the seismic upheaval of the 2011 revolution forced these factions to put aside their differences and forge an alliance in the face of an existential threat: the revolutionary aspirations of the Egyptian people.

Hossam el-Hamalawy - a journalist and leading activist with personal experience at the sharp end of Egyptian repression - delves deep into the inner workings of the security apparatus. Counterrevolution in Egypt is a rare and comprehensive examination of the structures, hierarchies, and methods of the military, police, and intelligence agencies. Drawing on meticulous research, it reveals the strategies deployed to suppress the revolutionary wave, from propaganda and surveillance to mass arrests, torture, and extrajudicial killings. El-Hamalawy traces the power dynamics within these institutions to show how their uneasy unity was both a response to the revolution and a determinant of its eventual fate.
