Lack of Publications On Egyptian Revolution
\n<\/strong>In all articles in the journal of\u00a0Cultural Anthropology<\/em>, titled “Reflection on the Egyptian Revolution<\/a>“. Saad shares how deeply the Revolution impacted both Egypt and herself, noting that while she’s an anthropologist, she chose not to write anything about the revolution that would be published. The comment suggests that she was thinking that whatever was written about the Revolution wouldn’t do the cause justice and would only take away meaning from the Revolution rather than highlighting it, and as such, she did not want to write anything with ulterior motives, such as published works for tenure purposes.<\/p>\n
