Bourguiba and the Battles of His Era: The Syndicalists - The Islamists - Nasser - Gaddafi: The Testimony of the Dutiful Son Mohamed Siayah
Lotfi Hajji
Bourguiba fought several battles throughout his reign that highlighted his political vision and stances, leaving their mark on both domestic policy and Tunisia's foreign relations. In this second volume of Siayah's book, the most important of these battles and their underlying motives are revealed, including his fierce battle with Ahmed Ben Salah, who believed that Bourguiba had ousted him to appease influential domestic and foreign lobbies that opposed reform in order to preserve their interests. His relationship with the syndicalists and their leader Habib Achour was also marked by conflict. He fought battles with them that escalated to bloody clashes as part of his vision of the state, which considered professional and civil organizations part of what he called the National Front, whose role was to support the efforts of the state and the ruling party without deviating from the official policy in place. His battle with the Islamists was the fiercest, as he considered his struggle with them to be more than a political conflict—it was an existential one. As for his foreign battles fought with Arab leaders, most notably Gamal Abdel Nasser and Muammar Gaddafi, they stemmed from Bourguiba's belief that those who claimed leadership among the Arabs lived outside of time, content with slogans and speeches that did not change reality because they relied on emotion rather than the rationality needed to lead to practical, achievable solutions. His disagreement with them, as highlighted and as we have named it, was a clash of eras. Therefore, true unity with them was impossible, and relations were limited to official, protocol-driven occasions.
