Antun Sa‛adeh laid down the foundations of a democratic Syrian Social Nationalist State. This National State, he envisaged, must be built on modern, non-religious bases and must possess the economic, political and military power that forms the basis for a strong economic order capable of generating economic growth and achieving the happiness and well-being of the whole nation. This book aims to introduce Sa‛adeh’s economic system and his ideas of social justice, production, wealth redistribution and the state’s role in fostering the nation’s economic development and prosperity.
