Abstract
Marc Lynch is associate professor of political science and international affairs and the director of the Institute of Middle East Studies at the Georgetown University. His new book on the The Arab Uprising: The Unfinished Revolutions of The New Middle East is a concise account of the events which unfolded in 2011 in the Middle East and generally referred as the ‘Arab Spring’. As indicated in the title of the book, Lynch refrains from using the term ‘Arab Spring’ and prefers to call it ‘Arab Uprising’ instead since he thinks that the term ‘Arab Spring’ “does not do justice to the nature of the change” p.9 . He emphasizes what has been experienced by the Arab world from December 2010 to March 2011 was revolutionary, but not enough to be named as revolutions.
