Abstract	:	Since the January 25, 2011 revolution in Egypt, a fear of the Muslim Brotherhood (<i>al-Ikhwan</i>) has emerged. This fear has been generated by the government and its allies in the media and religious institutions, and has taken on Islamophobic language, policies and actions familiar to the West. This thesis examines narratives of Islamophobia in the form of a widespread Ikhwanophobia which has replaced the spirit for democratic reform with a hegemonic cultural nationalism. This development occurs more deeply and vastly as post-colonial societies internalize Western Orientalism and Islamophobia.
