Vanderbilt University is bringing together an international journalist, scholars and artists for a five-part series of events, "Voices of the Revolution: The Arab Spring,"

"The Arab Spring: A Year Later"
A cross-disciplinary discussion with Vanderbilt scholars:
Historian Thomas Schwartz, political scientist Katherine Carroll and religious studies scholar Richard McGregor will discuss the political, cultural and social implications of the recent transformative events in the Arab world. Is change coming from the bottom up? Does victory in Egypt's upcoming election now go to those best able to network and organize protests? What will religion's role be in these countries' futures?
