Příčiny egyptského povstání

Abstract

The study aims to explore the origins of the Egyptian uprising of 2011 that resulted in the fall of Husni Mubarak and his closest circle. The underlying argument of the study is following: neglecting of the structural problems prevalent in the country, for instance, the growing size of population, the increase of poverty or high unemployment among educated youth, led to a growing discontent among Egyptians which was further fed by omnipresent repression of the political opposition, high rates of corruption among the regime representatives, and plans for a dynastical power transition.
