The purpose of this paper is to analyze how political changes since the Arab Spring have affected freedom of expression in the media and the arts in the Middle East focusing on the cases of Egypt, Turkey and Iran. In most Middle Eastern countries, including Egypt, Turkey, and Iran, many journalists and artists are persecuted for purely political reasons. And they are facing anti state charges such as belonging to or aiding groups deemed by authorities as terrorist organizations. In Egypt, Turkey and Iran, the Constitution does not guarantee full and complete freedom of expression. Especially since the Arab Spring, they have revised or newly introduced laws such as criminal law, press law, counterterrorism law and cybercrime law to suppress freedom of expression.
