Frequencies of Deceit
Laila Shereen Sakr, Arabic Glitch
a group of young Tunisian hacktivists triumphantly entered the much-despised headquarters of the Tunisian Internet Agency (ATI), which was housed in a three-story villa in the capital's leafy Mahrajne district.Sitting in the villa's basement were the hard drives and servers used to implement the Ben Ali regime's ruthless blocking and censorship policies, which for more than a decade had been used to silence dissent online.Once gaining access to t…
The Story of the Banned Book
How Information Warfare Shaped the Arab Spring
Tells the story of how a proxy-communications war ignited and hijacked the Arab uprisings On January 28 2011 WikiLeaks released documents from a cache of US State Department cables stolen the previous year.

Ideology as Narrative
This article examines a corpus of extremist Islamist texts for the period from 2007 to 2012, including transcripts of audio and videos produced by al-Qaeda in the Islamic Maghrib ( AQIM ).

In this essay,…

In the wake of the 1952 Revolution, Egypt’s future Nobel laureate in literature devoted himself exclusively to writing for film. The Aesthetic of Revolution in the Film and Literature of Naguib Mahfouz is the first full-length study in English to examine this critical period in the author’s career and to contextualize it within the scope of post-revolutionary Egyptian politics and culture. Before returning to literature in 1959 with his post-revo…
