Accounts of the Arab Spring often focus on the role of youth coalitions, the use of social media, and the tactics of the Tahrir Square occupation. This authoritative and original book argues that collective action by organised workers played a fundamental role in the Egyptian revolution, which erupted after years of strikes and social protests. Drawing on the authors' decade-long experience of reporting on and researching the Egyptian labour movement, the book provides the first in-depth account of the emergence of independent trade unions and workers' militancy during Mubarak's last years in power, and and their destabilising impact on the post-revolutionary regimes.

On The Night Of July 25, 1975, Indian Democracy Came Within A Hair-Breadth Of Extinction. A People Who, Thirty Years Earlier Had Wrested Their Freedom From The Greatest Empire On Earth, Came Close To Losing It For Ever. That India Had Been Given A Second Chance To Make Democracy Work Is Due Entirely To The Miscalculation Of The Would-Be Dictator. Mrs. Indira Gandhi Believed That The Indian People, Cowed And Crushed By Nineteen Months Of Unbridled Tyranny, Would Be Too Enervated By Fear To Oppose Her But Mrs. Gandhi Was Wrong. The People Of India Discarded Mrs. Gandhi S Well-Ordered And Regimented Dictatorship And Opted For The Flawed And Imperfect Liberal Model. If The Democratic Concept Came Close To Being Destroyed, It Was Because The People Of India Had Taken It For Granted, Delegating Power To Representatives Undeserving Of Their Trust, And Looking On Their Rulers As Their Masters Instead Of What They Actually Were-Servants On Electoral Sufferance. The Author, A Victim Of The Coup, Had Enough Time During His 15.5 Months In Jail To Ponder The Causes That Led Up To It. What He Found Most Difficult To Swallow Was The Glib Explanations Offered By His Colleagues In Jail About Their Woefully Shallow Understanding Of Democracy Itself. It Is This Realisation Of Pervasive Ignorance And Apathy That Led Him To Write This Book - An Attempt To Trace The Genesis Of Democracy And Search For The Origins Of The Attitudes And Institutions That Sustain It. The Book Tries To Explain The Virtues Of Democracy And How They Were Arrived At; It Also Tries To Warn Its Friends Against The Onslaughts Of Economic And Political Controls And Those Who Would Advocate Them. At Times This Book Will Prove Heavy Going But Human Freedom Is So Precious That The Fact That Plato Or Hegel Or Marx Need Effort And Concentration For A Proper Understanding Should Be Accepted Cheerfully, Their Right Postulates Acclaimed, Their Wrong Conclusions Rejected, And An Independent Assessment Arrived At. Finally, The Book Has An Inspiring Message: If People Are Ready To Live Democracy Earnestly Enough, They Will Never Have To Die In Order To Preserve It. A Liberal In The Best Sense Of The World, Piloo Mody Has Made His Mark As One Of The Great Iconoclasts Of India S Parliament With Devastating Sallies Against The Pompous, The Cur-Rupt And The Incompetent - All Delivered With Wit And Urbanity. By Profession An Architect, With A Degree From The University Of California, Mr. Mody Has The Distinction Of Having Worked With Le Corbusier At Chandigarh. He Has Found Time To Edit A Political Weekly, March Of The Nation, Has Written Numerous Articles For The National Press And Is The Author Of Zulfih, My Friend, Published In English, Hindi And Urdu. An Advocate Of Sound And Constructive Labour Relations, Mr. Mody Is Patron Or President Of Several Labour Groups Ranging From Officers Of The Life Insurance Corporation To The Hawkers Of Delhi. At The Moment He Is The Chief Proponent Of A New Political Culture In India To Bridge The Gap Between Kathni And Karni (Precept And Practice).

Frederick Douglass knew where he was born but not when. He knew his grandmother but not his father. And as a young child, there were other questions, such as Why am I a slave? Answers to those questions might have eluded him but Douglass did know for certain that learning to read and to write would be the first step in his quest for freedom and his fight for equality. Told from first-person perspective, this picture-book biography draws from the real-life experiences of a young Frederick Douglass and his attempts to learn how to read and write. Author Shana Keller (Ticktock Banneker's Clock) personalizes the text for young readers, using some of Douglass's own words. The lyrical title comes from how Douglass "paid" other children to teach him.
