How does the political ideology of the Egyptian Muslim Brotherhood evolve prior to reaching power and during Mohammad Morsi's presidency in Egypt? Questions abound on the nature of the events that led to the uprisings of June 30th, the military coup of July 4th and the vast popular resentment against what was still in 2012 the most popular political movement in Egypt. Critics of the Muslim Brotherhood have mainly accused the movement of pursuing a 'hidden agenda' while faking an ideological change oriented toward 'moderation'. Nevertheless, my research shows that the Egyptian Muslim Brotherhood's behaviour during Morsi's presidency was consistent with the general evolution of the movement's ideology aimed toward integration in the Egyptian political system.
