Parliamentary Elections in Egypt, 2015

Abstract

Following the 2014 presidential election, Egypt’s parliamentary elections failed to uphold democratic ethos. Despite the fact that the electoral process was better and the participation of women improved, it failed in terms of freedom of media, civil societies and allowing multiple political parties. Lack of clarity in the voting process, continued crackdown on Muslim Brotherhood, and absence of an opposition led to loss of faith among Egyptians regarding the so called transitional period and directed the future of Egypt back to the history.
