This book examines the communist movement in the Arab world from
the time of the Russian revolution until after the collapse of the
Soviet Union. It traces the interaction of the world communist
movement which was characterized by an uncritical acceptance of
Marxism-Leninism, and local communists, who moved from initial
dependence on Moscow to a position more adapted to local
circumstances and sensitivities that could be characterized as a
distinctive 'Arab communism'. It goes on to trace the impact of
'Arab communism' on a range of issues in the region, arguing that
the role of Arab communist parties was highly significant, and
disproportionate to the relatively small numbers of communists in
the countries concerned.
