Abstract

As a Western ideology and offshoot of communism, the ideology of socialism could prevail in many places. It had a lot of adherents in several parts of the world. In the land of Arabs, socialist ideology grew parallel to communism as a protest against capitalism. After the first world war and the collapse of the Ottoman Empire, the highly educated middle classes of west Asia thought about the necessity of an ideological upheaval that could end the region's established ruling systems. Socialists called for political liberty and economic changes. They motivated Arabs to be united and acquire their own dignity from the flood of European influence. Social justice and Arab nationalism were the central themes of Arab socialism. There were very few political parties that supported socialism in the Middle East; the Ba'th party and Nasserist Movement were prominent. The ideology has become perished throughout the Middle East and North Africa.
