The Changing Face of Authoritarian Politics in Egypt
Join the Commonwealth Club World Affairs Peninsula Chapter to hear Dr. Hesham Sallam speak about the evolution of authoritarian rule in Egypt under Abdel-Fattah Al-Sisi, who is about to embark on his third term as president. This discussion will analyze important shifts that Sisi’s political apparatus and governance strategies have undergone in the past decade and situate them in the economic and geopolitical challenges the country has confronted in recent years.
Hesham Sallam is a Senior Research Scholar at Stanford’s Center on Democracy, Development, and the Rule of Law (DDRL), where he serves as Associate Director for Research. He is also Associate Director of the Program on Arab Reform and Democracy. He received his Ph.D. in Government (2015) and M.A. in Arab Studies (2006) from Georgetown University
