Abstract: 

Salem contrasts De Smet's contribution to the debates on revolution and counter-revolution in Egypt with other important materialist readings of the uprisings. Echoing the centrality of class analysis employed in Gramsci on Tahrir, Salem challenges De Smet's reading of the Nasserist period and situates Nasserism within a broader pattern of coeval political struggles in Africa.
