For nearly three decades, scholars and policymakers have placed considerable stock in judicial reform as a panacea for the political and economic turmoil plaguing developing countries. Courts are charged with spurring economic development, safeguarding human rights, and even facilitating transitions to democracy. How realistic are these expectations, and in what political contexts can judicial reforms deliver their expected benefits? This book addresses these issues through an examination of the politics of the Egyptian Supreme Constitutional Court, the most important experiment in constitutionalism in the Arab world. The Egyptian regime established a surprisingly independent constitutional court to address a series of economic and administrative pathologies that lie at the heart of authoritarian political systems. Although the Court helped the regime to institutionalize state functions and attract investment, it simultaneously opened new avenues through which rights advocates and opposition parties could challenge the regime. The book challenges conventional wisdom and provides insights into perennial questions concerning the barriers to institutional development, economic growth, and democracy in the developing world.

La nécropole prédynastique de Kôm el-Khilgan (Delta oriental) a fait l'objet de quatre campagnes de fouille, de 2002 à 2005, dans le cadre des chantiers de l'Ifao. Plusieurs sondages ont été réalisés qui ont permis de mettre au jour un ensemble funéraire du plus grand intérêt pour mieux comprendre les grands changements culturels qui se sont produits au IVe millénaire en Égypte. Deux cent trente-neuf tombes ont été fouillées, qui présentent clairement deux ensembles différents par leur mode d'inhumation et leur matériel funéraire. L'un relève des cultures de Basse Égypte et peut être daté de la première moitié du IVe millénaire, l'autre des cultures de Naqada (Haute Égypte), qui occupe la seconde moitié du IVe millénaire jusqu'à l'émergence de l'État, vers 3000 avant notre ère. Cet ouvrage comprend deux parties : le catalogue complet des tombes, décrites par les anthropologues qui les ont fouillées, et une synthèse qui se propose, en conclusion, de reconsidérer, à la lumière des observations faites à Kôm el-Khilgan, le phénomène aujourd'hui très discuté de « l'expansion naqadienne » The predynastic necropolis of Kom el-Khilgan (Eastern Delta) was the subject of four excavation campaigns from 2002 to 2004 carried out within the framework of the IFAO. Several test-pits were conducted which uncovered a funeral complex of great interest for a better understanding of major cultural changes that occurred in Egypt during the fourth millennium. Two hundred and thirty nine tombs were excavated, which can clearly be allocated to two distinct groups differentiating by their burial practice and funeral equipment. The first belongs to the Lower Egyptian Culture and can be dated to the first half of the 4th millennium, the second to the Naqada Culture (Upper Egypt), which occupied the second half of the 4th millennium to the emergence of the State about 3000 BC. This book is divided into two parts: the complete catalogue of the tombs, described by the anthropologists who excavated them, and a synthesis that proposes in conclusion to reconsider in the light of the observations made at Kom el-Khilgan, the question of the "Naqadian expansion", which is nowadays much discussed
