‘emerging political parties have valued the problem of
integrating the social groups within each political entity
more than they valued the ultimate national objective of
creating a single national Arab state. °°
This does not mean
that they have abandoned the national doctrine altogether.
In fact they continued to consider unity as their ultimate
goal, albeit the idea of unity, at this stage, was embodied
in the call for a Syrian unity, which they envisaged as the
first practical step.
In the midst of the fragmentation of the Arab
national movement there emerged an organization of a new
type: the League of National Action. This organization
which started in the early thirties by a group of young
intellectuals singled out itself as the onlv national
organization in this period which did not only refuse to
recognize the legitimacy of the regional boundaries set
by foreign powers but also worked whole-heartedly to erase
them. For that end they opened branches in Syria, Lebanon
and Palestine and produced a comprehensive program for
national action not only in the Arab East but: also in
Egypt and elsewhere in the Arab World. They also tried to
formulate a systematic national doctrine by clearly
defining the meaning of nationalism and nationhood and
setting a definite scheme of procedure for the establishment
