Y oram M eital . Revolutionary Justice
As a study of the transitional phase between 1952 and 1954, Yoram Meital’s book Revolutionary Justice: Special Courts and the Formation of Republican Egypt does not supersede Joel Gordon’s Nasser’s Blessed Movement: Egypt’s Free Officers and the July Revolution (1992). The lens is adjusted, however, to investigate the revolutionary tribunals’ role in legitimating the coup, eliminating rivals, and constructing the official narrative of the 1952 Ju…
Egypt
The military occupation of Egypt exposed the British government to charges of self-interest and the betrayal of Britain's liberal political principles. This book is a comprehensive portrait of the British colony in Egypt, which also takes a fresh look at the examples of colonial cultures memorably enshrined in Edward W. Said's classic Orientalism. It presents a study that takes Edward Said's theory of colonial culture as a first reference and fol…

Jacques Berque and the Academy
Countering the arguments of Elie Kedourie and Martin Kramer, this paper argues that Jacques Berque's third worldism did not represent a personal ‘revolt’ against his own heritage. An examination of his memoirs shows that criticisms of his life and scholarship are not historically grounded. In politics Berque called for dialogue and interaction, not a political or philosophical rupture between cultures. His research revealed the divergent perspect…

Zaki Fahmi'sSafwat Al-'asr
Literary form at the end of the nineteenth century sought inspiration from European archetypes. By the 1920s, however, Zaki Fahmi turned back to traditional forms of expression in order to reaffirm traditional views of monarchy and to accommodate Islamic political ideology to national politics in a new period of political independence, as part of the constitutional argument in contemporary Egypt. It was, however, also an attempt to argue for poli…
