From Baker Institute Blog:
Interim Egyptian President Adly Mansour, the military-backed civilian leader who
formerly headed the country’s judiciary, only recently finished putting together a
new government. However, the original coalition that had pushed for the overthrow
of President Muhammed Morsi and the Muslim Brotherhood-supported government has begun
peeling apart, with some criticizing powers set aside by the military for the new
president. Moreover, the new government does not include any members of the Muslim
Brotherhood’s Freedom and Justice Party, raising the likelihood of more civil unrest
in the near future. [Albert B. Wolf is a doctoral candidate in the Department of Political
Science at the University of California, Irvine. He is currently completing his dissertation
on peacemaking and authoritarian political survival in the Middle East.]
