Although it focuses on Tahrir, the basic point is not contradicted by current events–quite the contrary. So this talk is not (yet) outdated.

As for the slides, I’m afraid they do not stand alone. If you’ve read the talk, you will see what sections each slide goes with; if you haven’t, the slides won’t help much.
