In the wake of the pro-democracy protests in Tahrir Square, many Western observers are dismayed by the electoral success of the Muslim Brotherhood in Egypt. Dr. Tariq Ramadan, grandson of the founder of the Muslim Brotherhood, joins us to talk about what the Brotherhood’s leadership means for the future of Egyptian democracy.

  • Tariq Ramadan, professor of contemporary Islamic studies at Oxford, and the grandson of Hassan al-Banna, who founded the Muslim Brotherhood in Egypt in 1928.
