The Age of the Efendiyya: Passages to Modernity in National-Colonial Egypt - Oxford Historical Monographs
Ryzova, Lucie (Senior Lecturer in Middle East History, Senior Lecturer in Middle East History, University of Birmingham)
In colonial-era Egypt, a new social category of "modern men" emerged, the efendiyya, who represented the new middle class elite. This volume explores how they assumed a key political role in the anti-colonial movement and in the building of a modern state both before and after the revolution of 1952.
