Summary |
"The production of a political platform by Egypt's Muslim Brotherhood is a sign that real developments-- some encouraging, some worrying-- are occurring in Egyptian politics. While the Muslim Brotherhood is prevented by Egypt's government from forming a political party-- a ban unlikely to be overturned in the near future--the release of a platform signaled what sort of party they would found if allowed to do so, according to a new report from the Carnegie Endowment. Nathan Brown and Amr Hamzawy analyze the draft platform's mixed signals--surprising progressive reforms; regressive, controversial stances; and the chances of achieving a consensus on the anticipated final document."--Carnegie Endowment web site |
