 Algeria POLITICAL PARTIES
One of the earliest active figures in the struggle for Algerian self-determination was Messali Hadj, who in 1925 formed the Star of North Africa (Étoile Nord Africaine) movement among Algerian workers and intellectuals in Paris and in 1937 founded the Algerian People's Party (Parti Populaire Algérien—PPA).
On a program favoring "the return of the Algerian people to national sovereignty," the MTLD won 5 of the 15 elected seats in the National Assembly elections of 1 November 1946; in 1948, however, the MTLD lost all its seats and was reduced to semi-illegality.
After Messali Hadj broke with the FLN, he formed the National Algerian Movement (Mouvement National Algérien—MNA), supported mainly by Algerians in France.

 HISTORICAL FIGURES: Ramdane Abane
Messali was seen by the Algerians as their national hero, their father whose very presence and spirit inhabited their homes and their lives.
The other members of the MTLD said Messali had the seeds of a dictator in him and that he must be removed from power.
Messali retaliated by saying that the high-ranking members of the MTLD were prone to electoralism and that this was not the right course to follow.

For Messali Hadj, who ruled the PPA with an iron hand, these aims were inseparable from the struggle for an independent Algeria in which socialist and Islamic values would be fused.
Upon his release from five-year house arrest, Messali Hadj returned to Algeria and formed the Movement for the Triumph of Democratic Liberties (Mouvement pour le Triomphe des Libertés Démocratiques--MTLD), which quickly drew supporters from a broad cross-section of society.
The sweeping victory of Messali Hadj's MTLD in the 1947 municipal elections frightened the colons, whose political leaders, through fraud and intimidation, attempted to obtain a result more favorable to them in the following year's first Algerian Assembly voting.

Ferhat Abbas y Messali Hadj merecen una plaza, sin lugar a dudas, en la historia del progreso lineal de la humanidad hacia la emancipación; una de las etapas de este proceso vendría dada por la eclosión de los valores de 1789, etapa ésta que llega a su culminación con la liberación de la tutela colonial.
Messali Hadj se verá rebasado por los jóvenes activistas de su partido, que van a fundar el FLN al producirse la insurrección del primero de noviembre de 1954.
Es por lo que Ferhat Abbas y Messali Hadj conciben su acción como una acción solidaria con las de los partisanos franceses de 1789 y los de la izquierda francesa en especial, pero, a la vez, como una acción distinta de las de éstos.

The most important group that remained outside the FLN was Messali Hadj's Mouvement national algérien (MNA).
It was divided into guerrilla units fighting France and the MNA in Algeria (and wrestling with Messali's followers over control of the expatriate community, in the so-called "café wars" in France), and another, stronger component more resembling a traditional army.
These units were based in neighbouring Arab countries (notably in Oujda in Morocco), and although they infiltrated forces and ran weapons and supplies across the border, they generally saw less action than the rural guerrilla forces.
