Abstract

This article aims to analyze the impact of the neoliberal structural adjustment program on the redefinition of the state-society relations by focusing on the Social Fund for Development in Egypt. Even though the Social Fund for Development was established in concurrence with neoliberal economic paradigms, the Mubarak regime’s internal dynamics had a great influence on the functioning of the Social Fund for Development in Egypt. The regime’s attempt of keeping its authoritarian structure and maintaining its patronage networks were the most prominent internal dynamics. Based on the fieldwork research conducted in Cairo and Beni Suef, this article specifically focuses on Social Fund for Development’s Small Enterprise Development Organization (SEDO) in order to examine the effect of the regime’s structural variables on Egypt’s political economy during the process of the implementation of the structural adjustment program. age

Özet

Bu makalenin amacı Mısır’da 1990’ların başından itibaren uygulanan neo-liberal yapısal uyum politikalarının devlet- toplum ilişkisini nasıl dönüştürdüğünü Mısır Sosyal Kalkınma Fonu’nu mercek altına alarak incelemektir. Mısır Sosyal Kalkınma Fonu her ne kadar neo-liberal ekonomik paradigmalar sonucu ortaya çıkmış olsa da Mübarek rejiminin kendi iç dinamikleri bu kurumun işlevi üzerinde büyük bir etkiye sahip olmuştur. Rejimin otoriter yapısını sürdürme çabası ve patronaj ağlarını koruma arzusu sözü edilen dinamikler arasında en etkili olanlarıdır. Bu makale neo-liberal yapısal uyum reformlarının uygulama sürecinde Mısır Sosyal Kalkınma Fonu’nun ‘Küçük Boy İşletmeleri Geliştirme Organizasyonu’ (KBİGO) birimine odaklanarak rejimin yapısal değişkenlerinin Mısır’ın ekonomi politiği üzerindeki etkisini Kahire ve Beni Süef’te gerçekleştirilen alan araştırmasından elde edilen verilere dayanarak incelemeyi amaçlamaktadır.
