His indictment of the political bureau of the PPA-MTLD in these crucial years is unflinching, yet in many respects he is less interested in judging the past than in warning future generations of the dangers of mythologis- ing anti-colonial heroes. In many respects, Ali Yahia is, decades later, Frantz Fanon’s idealised intellec- tual, as posited in The Wretched of the Earth (New York: Grove Press, 2004, p. 148), ‘work[ing] away with raging heart and furious mind to renew contact with [his] people’s oldest, inner essence, the furthest removed from colonial times’. One cannot help but notice, of course, that this goal requires Ali Yahia to provide new heroes to represent his Algerian ideal. While students of modern nationalism may cringe at such essentialist claims of ‘true’ culture and national ‘essences’, these categories matter deeply in the multiparty age of iden- tity politics.

Most notably, the role of the religious hierarchy, and how it has defined Iran’s foreign policy and steered it towards supporting the oppressed and exporting Shiism. Some believe, however, that Iran’s foreign policy stems from its tendency towards racial prejudice going back to the time of the Safavid’s, who were hostile to their Arab-Sunni neighbors. Journal for Iranian Studies 81 The objective to export the 1979-revolution has been one of the most significant political transformations in Iran’s foreign policy, and this has had implications for the wider Arab world. As a result of its interventionist strategy, Iran has entered into direct confrontation with Arab states. Iranian-Algerian relations fall into the Iranian perspective towards the Arab world. Since Reza Pahlavi’s reign till a period post-1979-revoltuion, Algeria and Iran cooperated with each other on many oc- casions, such as in the Iranian hostage crisis and Algeria played the honest broker role in Iran-Iraq War—Algeria paid a high price by the death of its former Foreign Minister Mohammed Seddik Benyahia in a plane-crash in 1981. Also Algeria rep- resented Iran in the United States during a time when their relations were frozen.

The Time-Honored Friendship: A History of Vietnamese-Algerian Relations (1946-2015) Abstract In 1958, the newly established Democratic Republic of Vietnam initiated a top secret program to ship a “large quantity” of submachine guns disguised as commercial goods to Algeria to assist the Front de libération nationale in its struggle for independence from French colonial rule. In 1973, Algeria leveraged its position as the host of the fourth Summit of the Non-Aligned Movement to issue a draft resolution requesting that all member nations pledge diplomatic support to the Việt Cộng, contribute to Vietnam’s post-war reconstruction, and demand the wholescale withdrawal of foreign troops from the Southeast Asian nation. At the close of 2015, Vietnam and Algeria celebrated the first commercial oil flow from the joint Vietnamese-Algerian Bir Seba oil project, located in the Algerian Sahara.

  • Algerian Islamism. Analysis of Elites and Resources in Major Political Parties and Social Movements (1990-2016)1
    ALGERIAN ISLAMISM. ANALYSIS OF ELITES AND RESOURCES IN MAJOR POLITICAL PARTIES AND SOCIAL MOVEMENTS (1990-2016)1 Rafael Bustos Lecturer in International Relations at UCM Researcher at UAM [email protected] SUMMARY This chapter represents an analysis, from the standpoint of the sociology of power, of the resources of Islamist elites in Algeria, specifically focusing on the three most important political parties: FIS, MSP (HAMAS) and en-Nahda between 1990 and 2016. This analysis, intentionally excluding armed groups, will try to explain the fundamental differences between the former party – a true mass movement – and the other two, which are circumscribed by their grassroots support and the circular logic of their relations with power. The different origins of their elites, their grassroots supporters and above all their political strategy all throw a light on the different paths followed by these three tendencies of the Islamist movement. Key words: Algeria, political Islam, Islamism, elites, resources, strategies, democracy, political parties, social movements INTRODUCTION Under the new president Chadli Bendjedid, who ruled during the 1980s, the Islamist movement began to show a strength that is still emerging. One example was the mass demonstration of students in Algiers in 1982, which was brought to an end by the publication of a 14-point document of Islamist demands. This led to the house arrest of Sheikh Abdelatif Soltani, one of the document’s signatories, and who died soon after while under arrest. The funerals held for Soltani in 1984 were attended by huge numbers of people, which represented another sign of Islamist strength. These two events were important moments in terms of the Islamist movement’s visibility and affirmation in Algeria.
