Dr. Sharan Grewal is an Assistant Professor of Government at the College of William & Mary, a nonresident fellow at the Brookings Institution, and a nonresident senior fellow at the Project on Middle East Democracy.

In episode 28 of Tahrir Podcast, we discussed his book, "Soldiers of Democracy? Military Legacies and the Arab Spring."

Analyzing the conduct of the Egyptian and Tunisian militaries within the context of the Arab Spring, Grewal presents the compelling argument that the manner in which militaries are treated during periods of autocracy plays a pivotal role in shaping their behavior under democratic systems. This perspective not only provides insight into the distinct responses exhibited by these militaries in the face of the uprisings but also sheds light on their divergent reactions to the subsequent waves of political turbulence that ensued.
