Beginning in 2011, Arabs across the Middle East poured into the streets to demand change. In the years since, hopes for democracy have disappeared in a maelstrom of violence and renewed state repression. In False Dawn: Protest, Democracy, and Violence in the New Middle East, Middle East expert Steven A. Cook investigates the trajectory of events across the region from the initial uprising in Tunisia to the failed coup attempt in Turkey and examines the state of affairs today.
