"In the wave of riots and uprisings that have shaken the Arab countries since December 2010, Egypt appeared on the stage straight after Tunisia. But there were dramatic differences, not only because of the size of the country and its geopolitical importance, not only because of the number of dead (864) and injured (roughly 9,000), not only because the economic background and development of capitalism were different, but because the two major actors of the regime change were different."
ONE YEAR ago on January 25, a rebellion began in Egypt that in a matter of 18 days toppled the U.S.-backed dictator Hosni Mubarak after 30 years in power. Egypt has been transformed—but the revolution still faces many challenges.
"When I studied the French Revolution, I always found it difficult to visualise who the sans-culottes were, what they looked like, where they hung out, what they did on a Friday night after a hectic day of street fighting and bourgeois bashing."
"The last twenty or so months have certainly been months of insurrection. This is perhaps no truer anywhere on earth than in the Middle East and northern Africa. Indeed, there is even a phrase describing this fact. That phrase is “the Arab Spring.”"
"Egyptian women have been on the frontline of the revolution since the beginning: in Tahrir Square and beyond they have faced tear gas and bullets to defy both Mubarak and his generals in the struggle for bread, freedom and social justice."
"The forthcoming volume, Translating Egypt's Revolution, draws on the interdisciplinary nature of the field of translation studies today as it seeks to describe and explain the myriad ways in which the Egyptian people wrested back control of their public space and public culture in 201. Come and debate their findings at an event at the University of East London on Thursday night."
"In April, OR Books published Tweets from Tahrir, a book of tweets sent from Ground Zero of the democratic revolution that played out in Egypt last year. The book, its promotions declare, "brings together a selection of key tweets in a compelling, fast-paced narrative, allowing the story of the uprising to be told directly by the people in Cairo's Tahrir Square. History has never before been written in this fashion." "
"سلّطت الثورة المصرية الضوء على دور الاشتراكيين الثوريين بوصفهم «العيال الجدعان» الذين لم يتوانوا عن الخروج للمطالبة بإسقاط حسني مبارك والمجلس العسكري، متوجين بذلك سنوات من التاريخ النضالي المغمور."
"لقطات حية من ميادين التحرير في جميع أنحاء الجمهورية، وردود أفعال لشخصيات سياسية وإعلامية توثقها بوابة الشروق في هذه السلسلة التي تمتد لـ 18 حلقة، كل منها ترصد يوما من أيام الثورة المجيدة، مستعينة بمانشيتات جريدة الشروق خلال تلك الفترة، ليتذكر الشعب المصري هذه النقطة الفاصلة في تاريخه الحديث، تلك اللحظات التي أشعلت معركة التغيير وأنهت حينها حكم الرئيس المخلوع.. ومازالت مستمرة حتى إسقاط النظام."
Aside from Egypt, perhaps no place in the world was more galvanized by the events in Cairo’s Tahrir Square last year than Washington. American policymakers and foreign policy experts on both sides of the aisle rallied behind the cause of the young men and women who braved violence at the hands of the country’s notoriously vicious state police to march for freedom.

مسيرات ٢٥ يناير ٢٠١٢ في كل شوارع القاهرة. ثورتنا مستمرة
The revolution lives on in marches throughout Cairo. January 25th 2012.
On 30 January, only five days into the revolution, the Egyptian Federation of Independent Trade Unions was born, the first such federation to be established since the union movement was monopolized by the state-controlled Egyptian Trade Union Federation in 1957. Since then, some 300 independent unions have been established nationwide, with a reported membership of nearly two million workers.
ى تلك الثورة رسائل لا تنسى.. بعضها أعطانا الأمل وبعضها سلبه منا وبعضها كان مُبهماً.. لكن المؤكد أنها أثرت بشدة فى تصرفاتنا ومشاعرنا وزادت من سقف مطالبنا وشدة بأسنا.. بعض تلك الرسائل كان فى أعظم يوم فى تاريخ شعب مصر.. جمعة الغضب.
The word ‘anarchy’ in Greek means "no authority." Anarchists’ central belief is that “no man is good enough to be another man’s master,” and that “good people do not need laws to tell them to act responsibly, while bad people will find a way around the laws.”
