This paper analyzes the ‘Coptic question’ in contemporary debate, underlining the political relations between the Christian community and the political institutions of Egypt, its varied composition, the intra-communal cleavages or factionalism. The aim of the paper is to understand what place is reserved for non-Muslim communities within the social structure and the political organization of contemporary Egypt and if the revolution can call in question the juridical and political position of non-Muslims.
