Dorsey | Keywords: | DRNTU::Social sciences::Political science | Issue Date: | 2011 | Source: | James M. Dorsey. (2011). Role of Arab militaries in popular uprisings. (RSIS Commentaries, No. 111). RSIS Commentaries. Singapore: Nanyang Technological University. | Series/Report no.: | RSIS Commentaries ; 111-11 | Abstract: | The structure and role of the armed forces in Egypt and Tunisia made the relatively peaceful overthrow of autocratic rulers in both countries the exception in the Middle East and North Africa. Similarly the structure of the military helps explain the violence in Libya, Syria and Yemen. It foreshadows worse violence in countries like Iran and Saudi Arabia should their regimes face similar uprisings. | URI: | https://hdl.handle.net/10356/94881 http://hdl.handle.net/10220/7915 |
