Abstract
In the thirty years period, Mubarak introduced several reforms. The introduction of political, economic reforms according to liberal principles could not stop Egyptian crisis. The two decades of economic liberalisation policies were accompanied by authoritarianism while at the same time these policies opened up opportunities for crony capital. Hosni Mubarak continued to carry out neo-liberal economic reforms in responding the external pressure, particularly international financial institutions. The vast majority of Egyptians was left behind the growing poverty and infrastructure crumbled.
