Description
We have all been stunned by the non-violent demonstration of People Power in Egypt. A broad, massive social movement was able to overthrow a repressive dictator, retaking ownership of their nation. As a result the political culture of the country has been transformed. But how strong is civil society? Will they now be able to consolidate their victory by building democratic institutions? Was this a revolution or a reform to save the regime? What are the lessons other peoples in the Arab world and in the U.S. can learn from the courage of the Egyptian people?
