SUMMARY OR ABSTRACT
Text of Note
This dissertation analyzes the social conflicts and class struggles that occurred between the two major representations of power in Egyptian news and politics (i.e., the military and the people) after the January 25, 2011 revolution. The dissertation uses Said's account of Orientalism to examine how Orientalism in postcolonial Egypt served Western hegemonic power through news texts in the period following the revolution by analyzing the relationship between the self and the other in news texts and photographs.
