Abstract

This study aims to penetrate into the depth of the event of Egyptian Revolution of Arab Spring by touching, identifying and analyzing real factors the most important at both internal and external level, who have helped and accelerated the pace of events to reach this critical moment in contemporary Egypt's history. The Egyptian Revolution of Arab Spring or the Revolution of Anger that exploded on January 25, 2011 was one of the most unique events in the modern history of Egypt. The Revolution was not planned but was expected at least on the hearts and minds of Egyptians, because of many motives and reasons from the inside and outside. At the same time, this study will shed light on the most serious obstacles of the phase of democratic transition, or what is known as "the process of real democratization". We can say that the Egyptian case, no matter that it was only one of the domino stones of the Arab Spring, but it is a special case in his background, whether for its reasons, motives, reality or the stage of democratization. For this, and according to this view, this event will be verified and investigated from various dimensions, especially that which was hidden earlier, in order to achieve a fundamental and significant fact of why Egypt and the Arab countries are delayed and remained away from the pace of global democracy.
