Well documented both with interviews, visits to the countries as well as US embassy reports, the reader is given a clear view of the events since 2009. Not a heavy read but one that points focus on the causes, the use of technology and the wants of young people in these countries. Having lived in Egypt for 8 years up to 2008, I see now what I didn't see then. Recommended. ( ) nessuna recensione | aggiungi una recensione

For three decades, Cole has sought to put the relationship of the West and the Muslim world in historical context. In The New Arabs he outlines the history that led to the dramatic changes in the region, and explores how a new generation of men and women are using innovative notions of personal rights to challenge the authoritarianism, corruption, and stagnation that had afflicted their societies.

The Arab Millennials did. And, in a provocative and optimistic argument about the future of the Arab world, The New Arabs shows just how they did it"--
