Are the Arab Spring revolutions a stand alone complex? They are all identical, individually localized outcomes (the revolts) to almost identical individually localized inputs (rampant corruption).

And if so, it is safe to say that one of the major factors in causing these individual uprisings was the access to data from the internet, like the twitter accounts that supposedly started all of it?

Doesn't the fact that the latest revolutions started after the Egyptian one mean that they have the same source and are therefore not a standalone complex?

No, they are all CIA backed.

That's a really good point. Tunisia came first, on its own. Then Egypt followed.
Of course, Yemen, Syria, Libya, and Jordan all happened at about the same time. The protests at least. All except Jordan have ended up in full scale revolts.

So I think there is still a SAC in at least those three.

The point I was trying to make was that the internet and the level of accessibility to any given person to it has increased the likelihood of a SAC occurring in the first place. That would seem to have some pretty serious implications if it's correct.

Considering these revolutions are all democratic and now Egypt and Tunisia are getting aid packages from the EU and the U.S. Personally, I have come to the conclusion that these revolutions are CIA backed to get rid of dictators they supported in the Cold War.

Each locale is inspired by another, but they aren't true <span class="math">copycats[/spoiler] in the sense of fabricating or obfuscating the identity behind their actions. There's also the issue that in a true stand alone complex, independent variables converge to give the functional appearance of a concerted or explicitly organized effort - which is not precisely the case with the Arab Spring because each nation is transparently doing its own shit for its own nation independent of all the others, not all the others as a whole.

It's something very close, conceptually, to an SAC though.

> each nation is transparently doing its own shit for its own nation

try using your brain.Do you think primitive tribes in Lybia started revolution ?? or it was CIA ...

try finding paralels with Yugoslav revolt against Hitler at dawn of WW2 .. It is clear Great Britain started its for its own interest ..

So what do you think is the case in Lybia .. Western forces and their agenda or primitive unedgucated tribes fighting for lolfreedome even country has shitload of money
