Abstract

Abstract This article aims to analyse and assess the exercised discrimination and the decline in the role of Christians, in general, and Copts, particularly, in Egypt from 1952 to 2010. The deterioration of the Coptic situation along with the political, social, cultural, and religious discrimination will be addressed and compared between the authoritarian regimes of Gamal Abdel Nasser, Anwar al Sadat, and Hosni Mubarak respectively. Political and militant Islam will be also addressed from the perspective of Christian politicisation and societal discrimination. The article will clarify in its conclusion, the gradual transformation status of the Copts from being protégé under the entente to become present-day Dhimmis.
