Rule of Experts is a compelling collection of interrelated essays that confronts the complexities of global capitalism and techno-science by delving into the dynamic history of twentieth‐century Egypt. Timothy Mitchell scrutinizes how varied forces - from the scourge of malaria and the cultivation of sugar cane to the impacts of war and burgeoning nationalism - played pivotal roles in shaping the techno-politics behind Egypt’s modern state. His incisive analysis reveals the intricate ways in which debt, discipline, and violence forged the basis for private property and reconfigured social orders. Mitchell further examines the emergence of a national economy, a construct born from the processes of measurement, circulation, and exchange, yet fraught with inherent challenges to its representation. He also sheds light on the enduring scholarly images of the Egyptian peasant, molded by stereotypes and academic reproductions, while exploring the unexpected trajectories of economic reform as influenced by social logics, horticultural imperatives, and political ambitions. With intellectual rigor and innovative insight, Rule of Experts invites readers to engage critically with the enduring questions of history, power, and modernity.
