Abstract:This book explores the 2011 political transitions and revolutions in Tunisia and Egypt. Chapter 1, by Alexis Arieff, deals with Tunisia's mass uprising, dubbed the 'Jasmine Revolution'. Chapter 2, by Jeremy M. Sharp, examines the January 25 revolution in Egypt and its implications for US foreign policy. It provides an overview of US-Egyptian relations, Egyptian politics, and US foreign aid to Egypt. Both chapters are reformatted and augmented versions of Congressional Research Service 7-5700 publications. Chapter 3 contains an augmented version of a testimony given by J. Scott Carpenter of Keston Family Fellow, The Washington Institute for Near East Policy, before the US House of Representatives Committee on Foreign Affairs Hearing on 'Shifting sands: political transitions in the Middle East, part 1', on April 13, 2011.
