In this episode of Global Stage, political scientist Nermin Allam (Rutgers University) describes her research on the intersection of women activism and authoritarianism. Interviewed by Kellogg Doctoral Affiliate Francesca Freeman, Allam unpacks the questions of how power is yielded, reproduced, and contested within patriarchal authoritarian regimes. Her new book project, “The Afterlife Goes On,” studies the legacy of women’s participation in the Egyptian uprising in 2011 against Hosni Mubarak.
