Arab Nationalism / Why A Single, Unified Arab State Has Not Yet Been Achieved
[ send me this paper ]
7 pages in length. Despite the fact that a single, unified Arab state has long been desired, the ever-present distraction of nation-state patriotism and tribal loyalties have remained the wedge that continues to defeat such a quest. Arab nationalism is said to be at fault for this inability to form a unified Arab state; however, there are those who contend that there exist a combination of reasons behind this ineffectualness. Not only does it have to do with Western interference and narrow-minded Arab leadership, but it also has a significant amount to do with the way that several nation-states uphold their political and social contrarieties. A considerable amount of critics believe that in order to achieve a cohesive, single, unified Arab state, there must be an end to violence and discord, as well as a move toward individual plans of development and removal of the nationalistic ideal. The writer discusses nationalism and unification as they relate to the Arab states. Bibliography lists 6 sources.

In many cases, commentators and policymakers appear mystified by Middle Eastern attitudes and, particularly, by their stance towards the West and the US.
