The Brotherhood and Democracy
January 30th, 2008 by Nicolas
Mark Lynch has released a new essay, entitled “The Brotherhood’s Dilema,” which evaluates the Egyptian Muslim Brotherhood’s “attitudes towards democracy.” Lynch writes that the Brotherhood’s “leadership has remained remarkably consistent in its adherence to the democratic process” and “has also matched its words with deeds.” He concludes by suggesting a policy approach that would reduce “regime repression,” recognize and reward “positive developments,” and push “to open up the public sphere for discussion and debate that might increase the organization’s transparency.”
