Egypt’s permanent revolution
True, the Egyptian liberal bourgeoisie cannot bring about democratization, because their interests are still tied into the current Mubarak aristocracy even when they appear at odds, and more importantly any real confrontation with the regime will entail the mobilization of the mass of workers and poor in our society, whose interests conflict with that liberal bourgeoisie. The latter will always remain coward, and opting for “smooth” gradual change.
Hence we cannot put any hopes on such corrupt self-described liberal bourgeoisie. Our coming Egyptian revolution has to depend on other social forces. The revolution has to be permanent.
