Egypt #jan25 analysis

shared by Ed Webb on 25 Mar 11 - No Cached
  • ut my reading of the law, at least in the detailed version printed in Al Akhbar on Thursday, suggests that the changes are largely superficial and the new law retains many of the flaws of the old
  • people who set up parties can start operating 30 days after notifying the parties committee “provided the committee does not object”. In other words the committee retains a veto over parties that it considers do not meet the necessary requirements.
  • substantial restrictions appear to be largely unchanged
  • ...3 more annotations...
  • n. I have not yet seen any Brotherhood comment on the new law, which Al Akhbar describes as merely a draft approved by the cabinet.
  • potentially troublesome restriction lies in the apparently innocuous phrase “social peace”, which in the 1970s was clearly understand as directed against any attempt to seek recognition for a communist party, on the strange grounds that communism is more of a threat to “social peace” than other political ideologies
  • If the military council approves this law, the extent of change will depend to a large degree on the good will of the regulatory committee
