Welcome to our new episode of Ethnic Policy podcast, where we discuss and discover topics around ethnicities, ethnic conflicts, and minority politics around the world. Ethnic policy is an entity concerned with identity and ethnic related studies.
Despite how ancient the Egyptian civilisation is, defining what makes someone an 'Egyptian' was a contested topic in the 20th century. And while Egypt then had a sizable minority of immigrants from south Europe, multiple theories have offered different explanations to the process of uprooting these communities.
We discuss in this episode with Dr Raphael Cormack, his research work about the early 20th century in Egypt, the several definitions of Egyptian identity, & the ethnic make up of the then sizable immigrant population in Egypt.
Raphael Cormack has a PhD in 20th century Egyptian theatre from the University of Edinburgh. He is the author of Midnight in Cairo a forthcoming book about the women of Cairo's early 20th century nightlife, and the editor of two collections of Arabic short stories in translation: The Book of Khartoum and the Book of Cairo.
