The Fires of Spring ─ A Post-Arab Spring Journey Through the Turbulent New Middle East
商品資訊
商品簡介
Many have forgotten that the "Arab Spring" all started with a young Tunisian man who set himself on fire in protest of a demeaning slap to the face by a government official adding injury to the insult of having his apples, his livelihood, confiscated without cause. The aftermath of that one personal protest grew to become the international protest movement known as The Arab Spring.
This book will be the first to bring the post-Arab Spring world to light in a holistic context.
Shelly Culbertson, a former U.S. State Department officer who lived, studied, and traveled abroad in the Middle East for over 15 years, is uniquely equipped to analyze the current social, political, economic, and cultural effects of the movement. With honesty, empathy, and expert historical accuracy, Culbertson strives to answer the questions "what is it like there now," and "what is likely next to come?"
The Fires of Spring tells the story by weaving together a sense of place, history, insight about key issues of our time, and personal stories and adventures. It navigates street life and peers into ministries, mosques, and women's worlds. It delves into what Arab Spring optimism was about, and at the same time sheds light on the pain and dysfunction that continues to plague some parts of the region.
