Description: Future of the Arab Spring : Civic Entrepreneurship in Politics, Art, and Technology Startups, Paperback by Jamshidi, Maryam, ISBN 0124165605, ISBN-13 9780124165601, Like New Used, Free shipping in the US A key aspect of the popular uprisings across the Middle East and North Africa that have come to be known as the "Arab Spring" was the "explosive rise in innovative groups, movements, organizations, startups, and other initiatives created by individuals at the grassroots levels to address various political, social, economic, and cultural issues," according to the author, who describes this as a paradigm shift for the region, which she dubs as the rise of "civic entrepreneurism." Here, she profiles some of the "most inspiring" of these new civic entrepreneurial groups, focusing her discussion on groups in Tunisia, Egypt, Libya, Yemen, Bahrain, and Syria, and basing her profiles primarily on first-hand interviews with members of the groups. She has organized the material into three sections: civic entrepreneurship in politics and society, civic entrepreneurship in art and culture, and civic entrepreneurship in technology startups.
