Abstract

The study showed the ability of the art of journalistic dialogue as a major art of journalistic editing in presenting ideas and visions on Egypt after the January 25 2011 revolution, and revealing the main and sub-crises that Egypt went through after the January 25 2011 revolution through eight major crises: the justice crisis, The crisis of freedoms and the media, the crisis of the constitution, the crisis of the economy, the crisis of the two legislative councils, the crises related to the presidency, the crisis of security, the crises related to the Egyptian foreign relations.
The study shows that the effects of the crises and their consequences are represented in threatening the Egyptian state through the deterioration of the economy, the increase in violence, the decline of the state of law and institutions, the collapse of the political process, the decline of culture and art, the suspension of the constitution, and the possibility of an authoritarian religious state, in addition to threatening the president through the possibility of a popular revolution that works on his toppling and the president’s gradual loss of his legitimacy, the possibility of early presidential elections, the possibility of the army’s intervention in the political process, and the expectation of the Islamic currents’ loss in the upcoming elections, as the elections have not yet taken place.
