Topic: Antun Saadeh


  
  Antun Saadeh - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Antun Sa'adah (March 1, 1904-July 8, 1949) was a Lebanese social nationalist thinker and founder of the Syrian Social Nationalist Party.
Saadeh and many of his followers were judged by a military court, and were executed.
Saadeh's execution was at dawn of July 8, 1949.

 Syrian Social Nationalist Party - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The SSNP was founded by Antun Saadeh, a journalist from a Greek Orthodox family in the Mount Lebanon region.
Saadeh had emigrated to South America in 1919, at the age of fifteen, and in the years he lived there engaged in both Arabic-language journalism and Syrian nationalist political activity.
Saadeh's concept of the nation was that it was shaped by geography, not by ethnic origins, language or religion, and this led him to conclude that the Arabs could not form a nation.

 Some Distinquishing Aspects of Sa'adeh's Thought
Sa’adeh, however, saw profound differences between the conditions under which nationalism operated in Europe and effected new forms of social relations and the conditions under which nationalism is to operate in a third world country like Syria and effect new forms of social relations.
Put in a nut shell, Sa'adeh's view is that the material structures limit the alternatives in which the mental structures can be changed but do not determine the necessity of choosing one alternative to the exclusion of the others.
There [52] is no problem pertaining to secularization that Sa'adeh did not tackle, whether it is of a historical or a sociological nature, whether it is posed by the nature of religion or the nature of values, whether it arises on the level of practice or the level of theory.

Saadeh was a fragment of the autobiogra-phy of his age.
Saadeh announced the creation of the Na-tional Democratic Party which adopted the slogan "An independ-ence that we must embark upon as virtual nomads is still better than slavery that seems to offer a civi-lized life.
Assisted by his dynamic son, Antun (founder of the Syrian Social National Party) he published two newspapers, al-Majallah and al-Jaridah, and sponsored a number of important activities such as the outstanding project to raise a statue in memory of the late Youssef al-Azamah who died in the Battle of Maysaloun in 1920.

The picture we gain from this speech is that of a political party seeking to break away from the daily routine of conventional politics in an atmosphere of uncertainty and profound sense of insecurity.

 History News Network
Antun Saadeh preached pan-Syrianism, the re-establishment of a Great Syrian empire covering not just modern-day Syria but also Palestine, Lebanon, Cyprus, and other stretches of the Near East.
Though his party has never held power (and he himself was executed in 1949), Saadeh's pan-Syrianism is still a potent force in Syrian thought, and thus in regional politics.
(Compare Antun Saadeh harking back to the Assyrian empire.) And though Aflaq's vision of the Arab nation was apocalyptic, it was not distinctively Muslim, since it drew at least as much on his Orthodox Christian heritage, mystical and messianic.

 Re: Fairouz And The Rahbani Music   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-19)
I am very interested in the impact of Antun Saadeh and the SSNP upon the intellectual, philosophical and artistic life of Syria.
Can we see traces of Saadeh even in Mikhail Naimy, Nizar Qabbani, al-Sayyab etc,etc? I think that Antun Saadeh has had a massive impact on the artistic and literary life of the Syrian nation.
I feel that we must detail and demonstrate Saadeh's profound influence on the intellectual, philosophical, artistic and literary life of Syria.

Despite describing the clashes from the eyes of a Phalangist fighter, Shami’s statements secular praising nationalism and describing the Lebanese as “children of life” suggests his appreciation of the Syrian Socialist Nationalist Party’s (SSNP) ideology.
He also praises the virtue of “the evolution of survival,” in reference to SSNP’s founder Antun Saadeh’s book entitled Evolution of Nations.
Shami’s book is an account of repentance of an imaginary fighter who joined a militia under the pretext “of defending the country.” As events unfold, the fighter discovered that his defense of the nation was futile and rather contributed to its destruction.

 AH Challenge: This is either the UK's or the USA's flag - Alternate History Discussion Board
I certainly hope the US government is never taken over by Antun Saadeh's Syrian National Socialists.
I saw plenty of those flags when I was living in Lebanon; they insist that the "swastika" isn't really a swastika but a stylized representation of the Fertile Crescent.
I like the gear in the middle; it gives the flag a nice "People's Democratic Republic" touch, and also gives you the impression of being watched by a bloodshot eye.
