الملخص

Since the January 25, 2011 revolution, the Police reform has been an importantpriority on the political agenda in Egypt. Human rights violations, as well as themediocre police performance presented good argument for the necessity of thereform. However, after the June 30, 2013 political change, the demands of policereform were less vocal, and the argument of the war on terror became a priority. Thiswas the interest of this thesis entitled "Prospects of Police Reform in Egypt'sChanging Political Environment" submitted by Rabha Allam and supervised by Dr.Amr Hamzawy at the School of Global Affairs and Public Policy at the AmericanUniversity in Cairo. The thesis addressed the question of the relation between thepolice reform and the changing political environment in Egypt between 2011 and2015. And to answer this question, it introduced the experiences of four countrieswhich conducted police reform through changing political environments such asBrazil, Turkey, Poland and South Africa. It also relied on 22 in-depth interviews with police officers and human rights advocates to assess the extent of the introduced reform and the prospects of any potential reform. The police reform wasconceptualized and operationalized through four main norms of democratic policingwhich are political neutrality, de-militarization, professionalism and accountability.Although, the Egyptian case failed on the political neutrality and the de-militarization levels, it proved partial success on the professionalism and the accountability levels. The thesis concluded to admit a positive relation between the police reform and the democratic political change, and also the inter-dependency between the four norms of police reform. Egypt might have missed the chance to adopt a radical reform as in Poland or in South Africa but still can be inspired by the Brazilian and the Turkish model
