Arab Spring: Political Evolution and Walking Step of Democracy
The objective of this article is to analyse the political evolutions and developments of the Arab World since the advent of Islam in 7th century up to the period before the emergence of the so-call “Arab Spring” that began in early 2011. Besides, this article also tries to address questions about Islam and democracy in the changing political atmosphere of the Arab world. This study found that although great progress has been achieved by the Arab in the past, their institutional political framework has never been developed in accordance with the dynamism of their own socioeconomic conditions. This, partially, led to the present uprising resulted in overthrows of the government in Tunisia, Egypt, Libya and Yemen and sparked uprising against other regimes in the region.
