In this ground-breaking work, gerasimos tsourapas examines how migration and political power are inextricably linked, and enhances our understanding of how authoritarian regimes rely on labour emigration across the middle east and the global south. Dr tsourapas identifies how autocracies develop strategies to tie cross-border mobility to their own survival, highlighting domestic political struggles and the shifting regional and international landscape. In egypt, the ruling elite has long shaped labour emigration policy in accordance with internal and external tactics aimed at regime survival. Dr tsourapas draws on a wealth of previously-unavailable archival sources in arabic and english, as well as extensive original interviews with egyptian elites and policy-makers in order to produce a novel account of authoritarian politics in the arab world.
