Reviews
This book is essential reading to help understand the important role that business interests played in underpinning Mubarak's 30 year authoritarian rule in Egypt between 1981-2011. Safinaz El Tarouty offers a nuanced account and explanation for the political economy that emerged under the dictatorship and the roles played by a range of powerful economic actors. - Ray Bush, Professor of African Studies and Development Politics, University of Leeds, UK This is the most detailed analysis available of state-business relations in Egypt. Under El Tarouty's microscope the complex political and economic links between politicians and businessmen are revealed not just as supporting, but also as modifying and even challenging authoritarian rule. Her well-documented findings thus provide a new, nuanced understanding of crony capitalism in Egypt and elsewhere. - Robert Springborg, Professor of National Security Affairs, Naval Postgraduate School, USA
