	Al-Ahram Weekly \| Special Supplement \| The future of Nasserism (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-05)
		Nasser had his victories and his defeats; that is indisputable.
		The emergence of a new Nasserism, in short, is necessarily contingent upon a certain set of circumstances and the appearance of a leader capable of exploiting those circumstances.
		Nasserism defies capitalist hegemony through its emphasis on "corrective" mechanisms to promote the "social dimension." It seeks to bend capitalism to the needs of society and the principle of equal opportunity, rather than bending society to the needs of capitalism.

		At home Nasser embarked on a programme of social reform, which included setting close limits on land-holding to benefit the cultivator class and expanding educational opportunities, saddling the country with a vast student population and an inflated bureaucracy to provide them with employment.
		Nasser's death in 1970 was an occasion of national grief.
		Nasser was succeeded as president by his vice-president, Col Anwar Sadat.

	Gamal Abdel Nasser - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		On January 15, 1918, Gamal Abdel Nasser was born in the Egyptian city of Alexandria, the son of a postal worker.
		Nasser was completely indifferent to the fate of Hungarian crushed by the colonial capacity of the USSR in Hungary at the time of 1956 Hungarian Revolution on November 3.
		Nasser's policies became associated with Pan-Arabism, which promoted aggressive action by Arab states to confront the "imperialist" West, and urged that the resources of the Arab states should be used for the benefit of the Arab people and not the West.

		Nasserism is a revolutionary Arab nationalist and pan Arab ideology, combined with a vaguely defined socialism ; often distinguished from Eastern bloc or Western socialist thought by the label " Arab Socialism ".
		Nasserism operated in Egypt through a totalitarian one-party system, and the mixture of dictatorial methods and socialist -style land reform and other efforts to improve life for the poor, yet however opposing or ignoring Marxism and the concept of class struggle and fervent nationalism, has prompted some opponents to compare it to Fascism.
		Some present-day Nasserists generally embrace democracy, tend to stress the modernizing and secular strands of the ideology, and are generally more left-wing than Nasser himself.

		In 1990, Diaeddin Dawoud, a cabinet minister and a high ASU official under Nasser, was mandated by the would-be founders of the Nassserist Arab Socialist Party to file a fresh application under a new name - the Arab Democratic Nasserist Party.
		The third group is made up of younger people who campaigned for Nasserism as students in the 1970s, and occasionally won control of student unions.
		"Nasser's heritage was not built at the expense of Islam and it does not contradict its teachings," he argued.

		Nasserism, the dominant concept in the region in the 1950s and 1960s, was the climax of this story, carrying all Arab countries in its wake.
		The rise of Nasserism was, however, not without violent struggles against the new dominant imperialism, of the United States, which, taking over from Britain in Palestine after 1948, chose to turn its protege - Israel - into the spearhead of its intervention.
		Nasserism, in order to assert itself and a new political and economic standard, was obliged to lean on the United States' sole adversary, the USSR, as Europe had withdrawn and lined up with the United States.

		Under Nasser, the state was in total control of society, thereby closing the door to economic development or democracy in any form.
		The Egyptian forces were trounced, although Nasser was saved by the political intervention of the Soviet Union, with the acquiescence of U.S. President Eisenhower.
		In 1967, Nasser abruptly evicted the UN buffer troops in the Sinai, deployed his army along the border, and closed the Red Sea to Israeli shipping.

	Naharnet Newsdesk - Ghassan Tueni Conducts an Anatomy of Nasserism
		The writer takes the Nasserite revolution to reckoning from the angle of the 1967 six-day war debacle, when Nasser went live on the air on June 9 to announce his resignation for his battlefield defeat at Israel's hands.
		He reasoned that the intelligence apparatus rushed to maintain Nasser in office to avoid accountability for its failure to carry out its duty in preparing for the war by assessing the enemy's might and how to go about confronting it.
		In a nutshell, Tueni went on, it should be noted on the 50th anniversary celebrations that Nasserism had mothered the "intelligence regime that built its survivability at the expense of human and public freedoms."

		The younger members, who campaigned under the banner of Nasserism as students in the 1970s and occasionally won control of student unions, insist that the old guard should relinquish their hold over the party in favour of modernisation.
		It is based on a number of interviews with Salah Nasr, head of the intelligence service under Nasser, in which Nasr blamed Nasser, Fawzi and Sharaf for the June 1967 defeat.
		The party is a strong champion of turning Nasser's dream of Arab unity into reality by strengthening relations between countries of the "golden triangle," namely Egypt, Libya and Sudan.

	BACKGROUND IN 20TH CENTURY EGYPTIAN HISTORY SINCE 1952 REVOLUTION, Jana Evans Braziel
		In the final years of Nasserism, Egypt witness the decline of socialist policies and the weakening of the marxist or socialist democratic state.
		Veiling (which had declined during Nasserism and egalitarian, socialist reform) began to increase in the 1980s; however, most scholars note that this "veiling" is a protest to westernization and capitalist imperialism.
		On the one hand, Sadat encouraged the visibility of fundamentalist Islamist groups, who were critical of the socialist government of Nasser; on the other hand, this increased visibility eventually led to attacks on Sadat as well.

		In responding to this new Nasser, the international community might recall the original Nasser’s ability to turn military defeat into political victory in 1956, as well as Nasser’s rhetorical excesses that led to his humiliating defeat in 1967.
		What made the original Nasser so threatening to the West and to the region was his transnational appeal.
		This new Nasser should be of deep concern to Europeans as Europe’s problems in integrating its 20 million Muslims have not escaped Ahmadinejad’s attention.

		Nasser sent in Egyptian troops to support the rebel military officers in San'a who proclaimed a republic.

		When Nasser pulled out, the republican regime he had backed fell from power.

		Abdul Nasser is probably the most popular of all contemporary Arab leaders yet his legacy is not liable to be used for political mobilization, as the recent events in Egypt have demonstrated.
		In response to a question about the retreat of Nasserism in Egyptian politics, he indicated that this was because those closest to Nasser were currently in power.
		Nevertheless, the Baathist ideology was far stronger and more intellectually coherent than Nasserism which is outlined in three documents and did not have a strong impact in the Arab intellectual domain, except for its propaganda literature and leaflets.

		Three years after the 1967 Six Day War, in which Egypt lost the Sinai to Israel, Nasser died and was succeeded by Anwar Sadat, who presented his takeover in terms of a Corrective Revolution.
		The completion of the Aswan High Dam in 1971 and the resultant Lake Nasser have altered the time-honored place of the Nile River in the agriculture and ecology of Egypt.

	A Cacophony of Fundamentalism, Noam Chomsky interviewed by Stephen Shalom
		Gilbert Achcar: When Arab nationalism, Nasserism and similar trends began to crumble in the 1970s, most governments used Islamic fundamentalism as a tool to counter remnants of the left or of secular nationalism.
		He fostered Islamic fundamentalism to counter remnants of Nasserism after he took over in 1970 and ended up being assassinated by Islamic fundamentalists in 1981.
		Today in the Middle East the same genie is out of the bottle and out of control.

		In response, Nasser nationalized the strategically important Suez Canal, which had been under British control since 1937.
		When the three countries eventually did so, Nasser was honored by Arabs as a leader who had saved the Arab world.

		You know, some mention of the fact that the US is the largest supporter of the Egypt (country of the failed Nasserism) might be in order here.

		Israel's pulverizing defeat of the Arab armies dethroned Nasserism, the romantic pan-Arab dictatorial nationalism that had infected much of the Arab world, particularly its intelligentsia, during the 1950s and '60s.
		With the collapse of Nasserism, the overtly secular socialist-cum-fascist age in the Middle East closed--except in Iraq under Saddam Hussein.
		Its spirit would soon die there, too, a victim of Saddam's long and disastrous war against Iran (1980-88), which encouraged the Butcher of Baghdad to emblazon "God is Great" upon the Iraqi flag.

		Additionally, when compared to other rival ideologies such as those of the Baath party or the Arab nationalist movement, political Islam paled in the richness of its thought and its originality.
		A derivative of the Muslim Brotherhood of Egypt, Syrian Islamist thinking was often burdened with the legacy of that movement, particularly in its confrontation with Nasserism.
		Rather than draw some benefits from its association with the Arab world’s most illustrious and oldest Islamist movement, Syrian Islamic organizations were tainted with the failure of their ideological forebears.

		Thus, if the Arabs set aside their political differences and united in a single state under a modernizing dictator, such as Egypt's Nasser, they would once again become a force to be reckoned with.
		At one time, Nasserism and Islamism were seen as genuine alternatives.
		Not only did Nasser's Egypt suffer an ignominious defeat at the hands of Israel in the 1967 Six-Day War, but also present day Egypt, despite $2 billion in annual U.S aid, is a social and economic basket case.

		In the heady days of Nasserism, the Iraqis masses were not entirely upset that the monarchy had ended, but the violent death of the young king engendered great sympathy.
