The first article, published last year in Perspectives on Politics, centres on anti-Christian violence in Egypt.

The second article, also published last year, presents research on anti-austerity riots. ‘Anti-austerity riots in late developing states: Evidence from the 1977 Egyptian Bread Intifada‘ was co-authored by Ferdinand Eibl (King’s College London) and Jeroen Gunning (King’s College London), and is published in the Journal of Peace Research.
