According to the results of the analysis, it is recorded that the political discord in Egypt's society is formed in response to the activities of the Islamist government led by President Mohammed Morsi. The «project» of state transformation proposed and implemented (for a short time) by them was reactionary, as it was aimed at eliminating SCAF’s constitutional declarations designed in 2011-2012s. to limit powers of newly elected politicians. Their involving into the regulatory and legal field is regarded in this work as a key factor in the subsequent next round of the political crisis of the Arab Spring. To eliminate them, the M. Morsi’s government focuses on the formation of its own full-fledged constitution, designed to change the balance of power in political system.
