{"product_id":"marginality-and-exclusion-in-egypt-kamal-fahmi-9781780320847","title":"Marginality and Exclusion in Egypt","description":"What does it mean to be marginalized? Is it a passive condition that the disadvantaged simply have to endure? Or is it a manufactured label, reproduced and by its nature transitory?\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn the wake of the new uprising in Egypt, this insightful collection explores issues of power, politics and inequality in Egypt and the Middle East. It argues that the notion of marginality tends to mask the true power relations that perpetuate poverty and exclusion. It is these dynamic processes of political and economic transformation that need explanation.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe book provides a revealing analysis of key areas of Egyptian political economy, such as labour, urbanization and the creation of slums, disability, refugees, street children, and agrarian livelihoods, reaching the impactful conclusion that marginalization does not mean total exclusion. What is marginalized can be called upon to play a dynamic part in the future -- as is the case with the revolution that toppled President Mubarak.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Kamal Fahmi\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1780320841\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781780320847\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Zed Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 06\/01\/2012\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 256\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.70lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.40h x 5.40w x 0.60d","brand":"Kamal Fahmi","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":47579860631807,"sku":"9781780320847","price":40.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_6b2a8bde-69a6-45d7-8d68-d2dd17804af9.jpg?v=1763877157","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/marginality-and-exclusion-in-egypt-kamal-fahmi-9781780320847","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
