A decade on from the Arab Spring, North Africa and West Asia are experiencing a second wave of revolt, triggered by the same features of governance and political economy that shaped the first wave. This time, it started from Sudan in December 2018 and spread to Algeria, Iraq and Lebanon. These movements find themselves pitted against entrenched authoritarian and counter-revolutionary forces that do everything to crush and bury them, including in times of COVID19. However, these have not said their last word yet and there are already signs that protests would resume after the pandemic subsides.
In this webinar, activist-scholars from across North Africa and West Asia reflect on the challenges and opportunities of this moment.
