Democratic State
Egypt held parliamentary elections this week. Does that make it a democracy? Steven Cook, a Douglas Dillon Fellow at the Council on Foreign Relations and the author of Ruling But Not Governing: The Military and Political Development in Egypt, Algeria, and Turkey (Johns Hopkins University Press, 2007), weighs in and talks about the state of the democracy movement in the Middle East.
