The left position of openness and economic policy in 1977

Forty years ago, I was still looking for a clear operational or operational position for the Egyptian leftists from the economic crisis that was expressed in the 1977 resolutions and demonstrations. I was surprised that the security services and the pens associated with them were burdening the left, while the left itself helped the security services with its theoretical weakness, failing to provide a clear view of its demands, proposals or alternative policies, as in the West.

As for the days I was following the leftist texts available, I can not find any clarity in the idea except when only one of our professors is Dr. Ismail Sabri Abdullah, and I do not find any attention to numbers, comparisons, rates, or ratios, except in some works, including the work of a friend, Dr. Ramzi Zaki. Our teacher Dr. Mohamed Hamid Dweidar was a lecturer, and our teacher Dr. Fouad Morsi was a symbol ... and so on

In the minutes of the first parliamentary debate following the January 1977 demonstrations, I found that the first leftist, Khalid Mohiuddin, a member of the Revolutionary Command Council, who received a Bachelor of Commerce, was clearly incapable of presenting a plan or a mere scenario of what the young journalist would do when he repeated what he liked about current texts. Khaled Mohiuddin speaks for himself in the Egyptian Parliament on the morning of the demonstrations (People's Assembly, January 20, 1977). He himself was a member of Parliament and dealt with some public issues.

The explosion was the result of a political decision that was no longer politically and media wise. The explosion was especially that the ground in Egypt was prepared for such a long period of time, because of class differences and richness in addition to manifestations of poverty.

• Decisions to raise prices have been canceled, but the problem still exists, and a wave of price rises will appear after six months, when the encouraging price results for the dollar appear.

• As long as the issue is national, the technical committee formed to study the economic situation and propose alternatives should listen to all economists from different directions so as not to be captives of one economic direction.

Egypt's problem is that there has been no development since 1967 due to military spending and that Egypt spends more than it produces. As such, we almost see that the trait of the public and the public perspective represent the nature that imposes itself on the economic and developmental views of Khalid Muhyiddin. This feature appears in the constants of the Egyptian left, which are best expressed in the book " the wise".

And about this book we move these paragraphs suggestive and function:

"With regard to the issue of economic openness: I believe that the left has, during the past four or five months, views on economic policy, was presented under the ministry of Dr. Abdul Aziz Hijazi. "The left had reservations about what Dr. Hegazi's government had done with regard to openness, even though Dr. Hijazi's policy of openness is no longer acceptable now."

But the left-wing discourse was still talking about what he said he did, but he did not present it in fact. He made a note and did not prescribe a specific medicine, as we say in medicine: "The left presented an opposing point of view, for example, what has been written in the Vanguard for the past five months, I discussed the economic policy of Dr. Hijazi's ministry or when I discussed the economic policy of the Ministry of Mamdouh Salem, there is an alternative to this policy, and we, as I have said more than once, do not refuse to open up and we do not reject foreign capital because we know that Egypt is facing its crisis. On the main structures of the national economy ".

"What we are offering, and what is required here, is not a program in the strict sense, but rather an alternative economic policy that would lead Egypt out of the crisis." In this case, I see what the "vanguard" wrote, The seminar can then lead us to this, and then the left-hand thinkers put the knot in the saw cleverly and as if it were not a party or an organization:

"The left explained, that openness requires special preparations - must be available - to protect the national economy." "The left has its own opinion on foreign capital, and the development of events has proved, and the experience has proved the validity of the left's opinion," he said. "The government has been trying for a year to reduce prices and reduce income differences." The left-wing discourse then repeats a few quick axioms about the social effects of economic policies:

"The economic policy that the government insists on, once again to deepen the differences, and raise prices, more and more The reason is that its economic policy leads to open the door to segments of the private sector is inherently inflationary, because it works in services, tourism and commercial agencies. Etc. All this creates a purchasing power that is not matched by production: it is a state of constant inflation, growth in wealth is not matched by production. "
