MORBID SYMPTOMS: RELAPSE IN THE ARAB UPRISING 2016
Book ID/图书代码： 11908518C00026
English Summary/英文概要： Since the first wave of uprisings in 2011, the euphoria of the ’Arab Spring’ has given way to the gloom of backlash, clashes between rival counter-revolutionary forces, and a descent into mayhem and war. Morbid Symptoms offers a timely assessment of the ongoing Arab uprising.
Focusing on Syria and Egypt, Gilbert Achcar analyzes the factors of the regional relapse: the resilience of the old regimes, the power of religious reactionary forces, the exceptional number of rival international and regional supports of both reactionary camps, and the shortcomings of progressive forces.
Drawing on a unique combination of scholarly and political knowledge of the Arab region, Achcar argues that, short of radical social change, the region will not achieve stability any time soon.
Chinese Summary/中文概要： 自2011年的第一波起义以来，“阿拉伯之春”带来的喜悦已经被反黑暗、反革命力量之间的冲突、混乱和战争的阴霾所取代。病态症状为正在进行的阿拉伯起义提供了一个及时的评估。
吉尔伯特•阿卡以叙利亚和埃及为重点，分析了该地区局势再度恶化的因素:旧政权的恢复力、宗教反动势力的力量、两大反动阵营在国际和地区的敌对势力数量之多，以及进步势力的缺陷。
阿卡将阿拉伯地区独特的学术和政治知识结合起来，认为，如果没有彻底的社会变革，该地区将无法实现稳定。（WYL）
