Abstract
This talk intends to honour the memory and work of Giulio Regeni, the Cambridge Ph.D. student murdered in Egypt. It will focus on my own fieldwork impressions during the revolutionary period in the Middle East and North Africa region. I will briefly recount my experience and make the case for the need to promote, rather than supress, academic research in potentially hostile political environments.
