Nasser’s Republic–Remembering the ordinary man who led Egypt to independence. What would Egypt be without Gamal Abdel Nasser? An intriguing overview of Egypt’s political history in the modern age, Nasser’s Republic examines the transformative influence of Egypt’s twentieth century titan Gamal Abdel Nasser (1918-1970) on the Arab world. Nasser will be remembered with the fundamental irreversible innovations he introduced to his country, such as the nationalization of the Suez Canal, the construction of major dams, and the implementing of significant social rules. On the back side of the coin, though, he is blamed, even many years after his death, for taking poor foreign policy decisions and being incapable to build democracy.
