Abstract:

Egypt’s recent economic reform agenda has been particularly advanced by a newly composed regime that reflects a modified overlapping of politics and business. Politicians with a business background are certainly not a new phenomenon in Egypt’s long history of authoritarian rule. This time we rather witness the prominent role of entrepreneurs with political and economic interests which they are seeking to implement by gaining a stronghold in the ruling élite and by taking over key posts in politics, business and society. Their role in politics differs from each other but they all have one thing in common: they are more or less close associates of Gamal Mubarak, second son of President Hosni Mubarak and strong advocates of Egypt’s economic turnaround.
