The changing landscape of the Middle East, North Africa and wider Muslim World as a result of the Arab uprisings at the beginning of 2011 opened up the opportunity for discussion of different polities which would better serve the political aspirations of the people of the region. Though much of the debate has been monopolized by a "democratic" discourse as well as the hegemonic status of the nation-state as the only post-colonial form of government, this article explores one of the alternatives as understood from a reading of Islamic history and political theory, placing the Caliphate as an alternative appropriate due to its historical precedent, cultural compatibility and global nature as most closely matching the political aspirations of the population.
