  • The Holidays of the Revolution Myth, Ritual and Identity Among Tel Aviv Communists, 1919-1965
    The Holidays of the Revolution Myth, Ritual and Identity among Tel Aviv Communists, 1919-1965 by Amir Locker-Biletzki A Thesis presented to The University of Guelph In partial fulfilment of requirements for the degree of PhD in History Guelph, Ontario, Canada © Amir Locker-Biletzki, March, 2013 ABSTRACT THE HOLIDAYS OF THE REVOLUTION MYTH, RITUAL AND IDENTITY IN AMONG TEL AVIV COMMUNISTS, 1919-1965 Amir Locker-Biletzki Advisor: University of Guelph, 2013 Alan McDougall The Israeli Communist Party (MKI) and its precursor, the Communist Party of Palestine (PKP), were a unique Arab-Jewish organization. Marginalized and persecuted for most of its formative years, the Communist Party developed, from 1919 to 1965, its own distinctive subculture. Negating and absorbing the Zionist-Socialist and Israeli statist cultures, influenced by both Soviet and left wing European traditions as well as Jewish traditional elements, the Jewish Communists developed their own cycle of holidays. Through the examination of primary sources, ranging from internal Communist documents and newspaper articles to photographs and posters, as well as interviews with contemporaries and comparison with parallel Communist experiences in the United States and in the Arab world – this thesis examines the myths and rituals reflected in the holidays, as practiced by the Jewish Communists in MKI and the Israeli Young Communist League (Banki). The thesis scrutinizes the identity these cultural practices produced. By examining the Jewish holidays, the Israeli civic holidays, May Day, the Soviet November 7th and May 9th holidays, and the rituals concerning the relations between Palestinians and Jews, it is shown that between the years 1919 and 1965 the Jewish Communists created a local, Jewish-Israeli, anti-Zionist patriotic identity.

Ide Submitted to the Graduate Faculty as partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Masters of Arts Degree in History University of Toledo This thesis investigates the interaction between Egyptian Marxists and the Egyptian State under Gamal Abd Al-Nasser from 1952 to 1965. After the Free Officer coup of July, 1952, the new government launched a period of repression that targeted many political organizations, including the communists. Repression against the communists was interrupted during a brief interlude from mid-1956 until the end of 1958, when Nasser launched a second period of repression heavily aimed at the communist left. Utilizing quantitative data of the communist prisoner population as well as qualitative first-hand accounts from imprisoned communists, this thesis reconstructs the conditions, demographics, and class status of the communists targeted by the repressive apparatus of the Egyptian state. It also explores the subjective response of the Egyptian communists and their ideological shifts vis-à-vis changing material and repressive conditions.

Elle interroge les conditions d’émergence d’une « cause » au début des années 1960 et ses transformations successives. Comment la défense d’un intérêt particulier, celui des populations palestiniennes, a-t-elle conduit à l’affirmation d’une identité politique par les groupes revendiquant une nation palestinienne ? On montre que la construction de cette cause s’est inscrite dans une conjoncture marquée par l’indépendance de l’Algérie et la décolonisation : elle a été indexée à la cause algérienne et au Tiers-Monde.

  • International Solidarities and the Liberation of the Portuguese Colonies
    Pubblicazione quadrimestrale numero 3 / 2017 afriwww.comune.bologna.it/iperbole/africheorientiche e orienti rivista di studi ai confini tra africa mediterraneo e medio oriente anno XIX numero 3 / 2017 International Solidarities and the Liberation of the Portuguese Colonies edited by Aurora Almada e Santos, Bernardo Capanga André, Corrado Tornimbeni and Iolanda Vasile The French Networks Helping the Independence Movements of Portuguese Colonies. From the Algerian War to Third-Worldism Tramor Quemeneur 85 Introduction1 The Algerian War was long, almost 8 years, and completely transformed the political landscape in France, where it contributed to create the third-worldist movement, notably notably through Frantz Fanon’s thinking (1991). But, as Benjamin Stora confirmed, the third-worldist movement was only efficient in 1962, just when the Algerian War was finishing: “In 1962, at the moment when the Algerian independence was announced, the ‘third-worldism’ of Fanon was at its apogee. Too late for Algeria. The war was over” (Stora 1997: 91). In parallel, the Algerian War was also a kind of incubator for the decolonisation movements. The National Liberation Front (Front de Libération Nationale - FLN) inspired a lot of nationalist and anti-colonial movements, notably those of the Portuguese colonies and of Portugal itself. Although many works focused on the Algerian War, they rarely concentrated on the later period, i.e. the first years of independent Algeria. One of the most important book was written by Catherine Simon, a journalist of the newspaper Le Monde (Simon 2009). Her book deals with the ‘pieds-rouges’, that is the French anti-colonialists who went International solidarities and the liberation of the portuguese colonies to Algeria after the independence.

  • Jewish Thought in Arab Societies, 1880-1960
    'Speaking Truth to Power': Shehata Haroun's Endurance Yoram Meital Presented at the workshop Jewish Thought in Arab Societies, 1880-1960 A work in progress Please do not quote without the author permission 'Speaking Truth to Power': Shehata Haroun's Endurance Yoram Meital At the beginning of March 2014 Nadia Haroun suffered a fatal heart attack. Hundreds attended her funeral procession that began at the Shaar HaShamaim (Gate to Heaven) Synagogue and ended at the Jewish cemetery in Bassatine. The funeral of one of the last Jews in Egypt was widely covered by the local and international media. The religious service was held by a rabbi from Paris who had come for the occasion. The reports and photos published in the press and on the internet dealt extensively with the Haroun family‟s history. Nadia died of a heart attack in the middle of a workday at the modest law firm in downtown Cairo she and her sister Magda inherited from their father, on whom this paper focuses. Shehata Haroun was above all a political activist whose positions were directly derived from his commitment to Marxism and internationalism, and his stern opposition to imperialism and Zionism. His exceptional and decisive views established his status as someone who is not afraid to speak „truth to power,‟ even at the cost of serious harm to himself and his family. Shehata was born in Cairo (1920) to a typical middle-class Jewish family. He attended a Catholic school for boys and later completed his law degree at Fu‟ad I University (which became Cairo University after the „Free Officers‟ coup).
