AAU 3.11 Political Islam in crisis?: Lessons from the post-revolutionary Arab world

Publicado el 07 de febrero 2022

Stéphane Lacroix, an associate professor of Political Science at Sciences Po and a researcher at its Centre de Recherches Internationales (CERI), is giving this conference as part of the Aula Árabe Universitaria series. It will be held on February 9 and 10, in Cordoba and Madrid, respectively. When the Arab revolutions broke out in 2010-2011, political Islam seemed as if it were on the verge of becoming the dominant political force in the Arab region. The Muslim Brotherhood, considered the strongest political opposition in most Arab countries, did very well in the region’s first democratic elections, rising to power in both Egypt and Tunisia. In 2011, the Justice and Development Party won a simple majority in Morocco’s parliamentary elections. However, one decade later, the Islamists face not only internal crisis of an unprecedented magnitude, but also massive repression by the region’s authoritarian states, which have regained power. How can this twist of fate be explained? And what does this say about political Islam’s future? This event, the eleventh conference in our event series Aula Árabe Universitaria, will be taking place at Casa Árabe’s headquarters in Cordoba on February 9 at 7:00 p.m. It has been organized with the cooperation of Loyola University’s bachelor’s degree program in International Relations in Cordoba. The event will be presented by Javier Rosón, Casa Árabe’s coordinator in Cordoba, with the participation of María Ángeles Alaminos Hervás, a professor in International Relations at Loyola University. In Madrid, the conference will be held on February 10 at 6:00 p.m. It has been organized with the cooperation of MA EUROSUD - South European Studiesat the Universidad Autónoma de Madrid. The conference in Madrid will be presented by Karim Hauser, Casa Árabe’s International Relations Coordinator, with the participation of with the participation of Waleed Saleh, Universidad Autónoma de Madrid.. It will be broadcast live on Casa Árabe’s YouTube channel.
