This book examines the political economy of the Middle East and North Africa, and how it impacts young people’s civic and political participation today.

The edited volume analyses the extent to which young people influence public policies, social, cultural and economic structures, and how on the other hand these young people are influenced by the same structures. It focuses on the politics and agency of youth, and how they impact social change and continuity in the Middle East and North Africa.

The book will be of great value to students, scholars and researchers interested in Youth Movements, MENA, Comparative Politics and Political Economy.

The chapters in this book were originally published as a special issue of the journal, Mediterranean Politics.

Nadine Sika is Associate Professor of Comparative Politics at the American University in Cairo. She is author of Youth Activism and Contentious Politics in Egypt: Dynamics of Continuity and Change (2017). She is Book Reviews Editor of Mediterranean Politics and Associate Editor of Democratization.
