C.C. Jean Krasno: For the record, Mr. Maksoud, could you explain your role in the Arab League, and when you began your diplomatic career? Clovis Maksoud: I am not a professional diplomat, I was appointed the first time to thethe Arab League, inin order to establish the Arab League mission in New Delhi on February 4th,til, 1961. ButBu1. II suppose you are interested only in the UN part. JK: Well, more inin relationshiprelationship toto thethe UN, but also it is good to establish something aboutabout youryour background. CM:CM: II waswas aa politicalpolitical appointee at thethe time.time. That experience helped me a great deal in establishingestablishing closeclose relationshipsrelationships with thethe IndianIndian leadership,leadership, especially with Pauslit, Nehru, andand alsoalso withwith Mrs.Mrs. GandhiGandhi andand Mr.Mr. Shastri.Shastri. ItIt was a very interestinginteresting period forfor me becausebecause thatthat waswas thethe timetime II waswas preparingpreparing forfor thethe liberationliberation of Goa, and thethe IndianIndian CouncilCouncil onon AfricaAfrica invitedinvited me,me, thethe firstfirst dayday II waswas there.there. ThereThere waswas an invitationinvitation forfor all thethe leaders,leaders, manymany ofofwhom whom becamebecame headsheads ofof statestate inin AfricaAfrica oftheof the nationalnational movementsmovements inin thethe 2 Portuguese colonies. The conference was a prelude to India's liberation of Goa from the Portuguese enclave in India. JK: I see. CM: During that period, of the five and a half years I spent in India, there was the war with China, and that was a testing ground for Arab diplomacy, and especially during President Nasser's regime, and the role he played in organizing the peace settlement later on. Because of Egyptian DARUAR at the time and the Burmese and the Sri Lankans and other non-aligned cOlmtries took the initiative to try and bring peace. Anyway, that was a great, enriching experience, the first test of non-alignment in resolving a conflict and with all the ramifications that it had on the non-aligned movement. That was in 1962. JK: What is your country of origin? CM: Lebanon. Then there was, in 1965, the Kashmir crisis, which was endemic and led to the war between India and Pakistan. That too was another testing ground for the Arab League and the challenged to answer "Are we pro-India, pro-Pakistan?" The Arabs wel'e divided in that; some were pro-Pakistan and perceived as great supporters of Palestinian rights in addition to being a Muslim country. On the other hand, Nelu'u and Nasser were very close and Nehru played a very important role, a pivotal role, in the non­non- aligned movement. Many Arabs did not think that religious bonds should be the criteria for political judgments, except in a very marginal way. So, that was another test for the -2­-2- • 3 Arab League, especially when the Arab heads of state met inin Rabbat atat thethe time,time, toto trytry -- and resolve the issue. Anyhow, these are the two major confrontations, withwith ChinaChina ---- aa -- non-aligned countly with a communist country with implicationsimplications forfor thethe SovietSoviet UnionUnion ~ and the American situation at the time; it was a learning experience ---- andand thenthen thethe ~ Pakistani-Indian conflict, as well as the fact that inin thethe period thatthat II was there,there, II worked with three Prime Ministers, Nehru,Nehru, Shastri, and the first govenunent of Mrs. Gandhi.Gandhi. What I am trying to summarize here is the fact that,that, firstfirst itit was aa greatgreat learninglearning experience, it has enabled me to network with a great number ofintellectualsintellectuals andand politicalpolitical leaders from India and the region (because I was also accredited at Nepal andand SriSri LankaLanka and Burma), so in a way, that region became a very importantimportant dimension ofof mymy lifelife expenence. JK: And, what was your first contact with the United Nations? CM:eM: The first contact with the United Nations was inin 1967, but inin aa veryvery adad hochoc manner. In 1967, we were at a conference in Algeria when tensiontension between EgyptEgypt andand Israel arose towards the end of May. Some of us were asked at thethe timetime thatthat wewe shouldshould explain the Arab point of view; a couple went to France, and II went toto thethe UnitedUnited StatesStates with Fayez Sayegh and Wallid Khalidi. But in order toto be able toto have accessaccess andand explain the Arab position, we became advisors in respective Arab delegations. WallidWallid Khalidi joined the Iraqi delegation, Fayez Sayegh thethe Kuwaiti delegation, andand II thethe Lebanese delegation. We were marginal. This was justjust a sort ofan ad hochoc positionposition advisory, but that was my first contact with the United Nations. After that,that, II waswas inin CairoCairo - 3 ­ - • 4 in the Arab League at that time after I had left India. I resigned from the Arab League • around early July 1967, and retumed to work in al-Ahram in Cairo. I wrote several • articles on India, several commentaries, etc. And then I went back, in 1971, to Lebanon to practice law and also to edit the weekly edition ofal-Nahar. Then, in 1974, although it • wasn't a In\TUJ\T experience as such, I came to the United States as a special envoy of the .. Arab League summit, to explain to the American public and decision-makers the reasons ~ for the oil embargo. That enabled me to have an unprecedented access and exposure to interesting people, greatly motivated to hear our views at the time. That gave me a great ~ deal of exposure in the media and the television. I met several of the leading newsmen in ~ the U.S., and that facilitated my subsequent assignment to the United States and the United Nations in September 1979. JK: And when did that assigmnent begin? eM:CM: Egypt was suspended from the Arab League in July 1979, during the Baghdad summit conference, because of its peace treaty with Israel, which was considered to be a violation of the charter of the Arab League. I, at that time, wrote an open letter to the new Secretary-General, whom I did not lmow, in the newspaper of which I was the editor. It was a huge open letter about the future of the Arab League, and the fact that Egypt is not within its ranks now, and thus its ensuing responsibilities. He didn't know me. I didn't know him either. The Arab League Secretary General Chedli Klibi explained who I was. He invited me to come to Tunis, where the League Headquarters are, and offered me the job. I was taken aback, because I was very critical of the Arab League. Anyhow, I said - 4 ­- III 55 III "Well, I'll take it for a year." I came, and II assumed mymy newnew responsibilitiesresponsibilities inin NewNew York on the first of September 1979. .­ There were two major crises upon my arrival: oneone waswas whenwhen AndrewAndrew Young,Young, ..

Drawing on a definition of secularism as a process of defining, managing, and intervening in religious life by the state, this paper identifies how under Habib Bourguiba and Zine al-Abidine Ben Ali the state sought to subordinate religion and to claim the sole right to interpret Islam for the public in an effort to win the monopoly over religious symbolism and, with it, political control.

This period, as will be shown, was critical in shaping the ethno-religious arrangement of peoples in Tunisia today. This occurred because a centralizing newly-independent state created a nation through identity based upon citizenship. Tunisia is a particularly good case study of homogenizing post-colonial nation-states because the government never sought to exclude any part of the population through direct action. Instead, domestic and international events that shook the nation and had an impact on the Jewish minority, such as independence, the reorganization of the Jewish community of 1958, the 1961 Bizerte Crisis and the Six Day War, made a solution such as exile palatable for the Jews.

  • 11 BAB II DINAMIKA ORGANISASI LIGA ARAB Dalam Bab Ini Penulis
    BAB II DINAMIKA ORGANISASI LIGA ARAB Dalam bab ini penulis memaparkan deskripsi umum tentang Liga Arab dan bagaimana hubungan Liga Arab dengan Palestina terkait topik bahasan ini. selain itu penulis juga memaparkan tentang bagaimana tujuan serta prinsip Liga Arab, keanggotaan Liga Arab serta struktur organisasi yang dimiliki oleh Liga Arab. A. Sejarah Terbentuknya Liga Arab Ketika Perang Dunia II masih berlangsung, terdapat keinginan yang muncul diantara negara-negara Arab di Timur Tengah untuk mendirikan sebuah organisasi. Organisasi tersebut diharapkan dapat memberikan wadah dalam berbagai aspek dan dapat menjadi penengah atau mediator ketika terjadi perselisihan di antara sesama negara Arab ataupun dengan negara non-Arab. Keinginan ini kemudian didukung oleh Inggris pada tahun 1942 dikarenakan Inggris memiliki motif untuk negara-negara Arab agar bergabung dengan pihak Sekutu. Namun pada saat itu negara-negara Arab tidak memiliki ketertarikan untuk bergabung (Firman, 2019). Alasan negara-negara Arab enggan untuk bergabung dikarenakan pada saat itu juga turut berkembang semangat anti-kolonialisme di sebagian besar ngara-negara Arab. Pada saat itu dapat dikatakan Mesir masih menjadi negara boneka imperialis Protektorat Britania. Sedangkan Yordania, Bahrain, Irak, Qatar dan Uni Emirat Arab dijajah Inggris. Maroko, Tunisia, Suriah dan Aljazair dijajah Perancis. Menurut catatan Council of Foreign Relation Liga Arab, dukungan dari Inggris ini dinilai sebagai motivasi untuk segera membentuk sebuah kesatuan nasionalis Arab yang nantinya akan meningkatkan dukungan bagi orang-orang Arab Palestina. Puncak dari proses 11 ini ialah pada tanggal 7 Oktober tahun 1944 yang mana ditandatangani sebuah perjanjian yaitu Protokol Alexandria yang berlokasi di Alexandria. Perjanjian ini ditandatangani oleh lima negara Arab yang menjadi awal dari dibentuknya Liga Arab satu tahun setelahnya (Masters & Sergie, 2014).

KEYWORDS Tunisia, Classical Reception, Authoritarian Representation, Bourguiba, Ben Ali, Identity Discourse, Classical Iconography ABSTRACT (German) Der Beitrag behandelt die Funktionalisierung der Antike in der Reprä- sentation der beiden tunesischen Präsidenten Habib Bourguiba (1956–1987) und Zine el Abidine Ben Ali (1987–2011). Anhand einer bemerkenswert reichen, bisher aber noch nicht synoptisch erfassten Befundlage wird diskutiert, welche Rolle der Antike bei autokratisch initiierten Identitäts- diskursen dieser Zeitspanne zukam. Untersucht werden Antikenrekurse im Rahmen öffentlicher Auftritte, Reden, nationaler Gedenktage sowie ihre Bedeutung in Programmen tunesischer Pavillons auf Weltausstellungen. Die Analyse antikisierender Ikonographie von zeitgenössischen Münzen, Geld- scheinen, Briefmarken, Architektur und Bauvorhaben, die einen klaren Kon- nex zu Bourguiba oder Ben Ali aufweisen, ist zentral für das Verständnis von Teilen des in diesen Jahren geschaffenen „Tunesienbildes“.

Thanks to the editors and publisher for permission to use the material here. The description of events during 1990 draws heavily on my chapter, "Inter-Arab Relations," Middle East Contemporary Survey, Vol. XIV, 1990, Ami Ayalon, ed., Westview Press, Boulder, San Francisco and London, forthcoming). Special thanks to Ken Stein, Director of The Carter Center's Middle East Program for his incisive input into this paper, and for his gracious hospitality during my academic year as a Visiting Middle East Fellow. For decades to come, declared Morocco's King Hasan in the fall of 1990, Iraq's invasion, subjugation and attempted incorporation of Kuwait as Iraq's "19th province" will be a dividing line in modern Arab history. 1 Indeed, never in the checkered and conflict-ridden 45-year history of the Arab League had the tenets of Arab solidarity and good neighborliness embodied in the League's founding charter and Joint Defense Pact of 1950 been so blatantly violated. Moreover, the decision to invade was preceded by months of diplomatic activity culminating in a frenzy of mediation efforts, the kinds which had scored considerable successes in past inter-Arab wrangles.

    PPoolliittiiccss && EEccoonnoommiiccss BBuulllleettiinn ► 11.03.2016 Turkish PM asks for opposition support for visa liberalization Hurriyet Daily News, 10.03.2016 Turkish Prime Minister Ahmet Davutoğlu has called on the country’s opposition parties to help adopt the legal arrangements required for visa liberalization for Turkish citizens in the European Union. “Inshallah [God willing], visa exemption will be provided in June. I want to make a call to the opposition leaders from here; we need to get legal arrangements adopted by parliament by May 1 so that processes within the European Union will also be completed by June. We need the opposition’s support. We, at least, need them to not cut our water off,” Davutoğlu said late. “We would pass these [arrangements] with 317 votes anyhow but let them not obstruct it,” he said, referring to the fact that his ruling Justice and Development Party (AKP) holds a majority of the 550- seated national assembly with 317 deputies. “Let them not block parliament with an obstructive stance and let’s pass these laws. This is a 50-60- year-old dream. We will make it real for our citizens,” he said, while delivering a speech at a reception hosted by the International Investors Association of Turkey (YASED). At a special summit on the migration crisis held in Brussels, the Turkish government and the EU agreed on a deal due to be finalized on March 17-18 which would see Turkey take back all illegal migrants landing in Greece. Ankara proposed an arrangement under which the EU would legally resettle one Syrian refugee from camps in Turkey in exchange for every illegal Syrian that Turkey takes from Greece, in a bid to reduce the incentive for people to board boats for Europe.

Aunque en su origen las revueltas tunecina y egipcia no tenían relación con la política exterior, conforme las transiciones se desarrollaban sí afectaron la política externa de ambas naciones de maneras evidentes. ¿Qué aspectos concretos de sus políticas exteriores se vieron afectados por los cambios institucionales y la inestabilidad? ¿Cómo ha servido la política exterior para movilizar a las sociedades en favor de la legitimación de las nuevas autoridades y la integración nacional? ¿Y hasta qué grado, a su vez, son las sociedades agentes en la for- mulación o implementación de la política exterior? 1 Se invita al lector a tomar en cuenta que la redacción del presente artículo finalizó en noviembre de 2013 y que, debido a las fechas de entrega que establece el comité editorial de Foro Internacional, se entregó a principios de diciembre de ese año.
