  • 'This Week' Speaks to Egyptian President - Anwar Sadat about his on new economic policy, an “open-door” policy designed to attract foreign investors and build up a prosperous middle-class. He is
    introducing what he describes as “my democracy”. He is confident of achieving “economic take-off”, and is unconcerned by suggestions that he is breeding uncontrollable tensions by encouraging untrammeled, capitalism. The recent rioters against raised food prices are “riff.-raff”. Criticism of rich men’s extravagance is “Marxist hatred”.
    Given Egypts economic, plight, and Sadat’s reliance on foreign capital for revival, it is easy to understand the pressure ‘for peace, the necessity for peace. Yet economic revival seems so distant and the tensions implicit in Sadat’s chosen course so dangerous, that it is just as easy to see how peace could fail to provide an answer to Egypt’s problems, and war be once again the attractive option.

    "The if's and but's over the future of Egypt are almost overwhelming. If there's peace in the middle east; if the foreigners invest; and if, as a consequence, the economy recovers; and if then, the houses are built; and if the fear of hunger is banished; and if the poor, as well as the rich, prosper. If. And if not? The closer you look at Egypt the more tempted you are to predict an upheaval that would ricochet across the Middle East and further beyond."
    Arab Spring started in Tunisia, but he was basically correct.

    the 70s especially 1979 was the worst decade in egypt's history in terms of gdp per capita ranking. but it wasn't sadat's fault, without him egypt would have been worse off. it was because marxisim; egypt's 11 consecutive wars, revolutions and foreign interventions culminating in 1977 against gaddafi and the arab sanctions against egypt finally took their toll on egypt in the 70s.

    Excellent report by Thames TV on Egypt and Anwar Sadat. President Sadat is committed to lead Egypt in a different direction from Nasser's Socialist path. It is ironic that a British reporting team is doing this report. How was the modern world created that led to the higher standard of living for everyone in the developed Western World. It started in Western Europe with Great Britain, Netherland, Belgium, France, and Germany. It also includes Europe's colonial descendants like the US and Canada. In Europe from the late 1600s to early 1900s we see a dramatic change in the way people live. The development of machines and new ways to become more productive. Overall it was the Enlightenment that drove the Industrial Revolution and Agricultural Revolution which made material goods readily available to everyone albeit more so with some than others. From the 1800s to the early 1900s we see this dramatic transformation from an agrarian based society that had existed since the dawn of civilization to an industrialized society of the present day. When we look at the societies of today we see impoverished, third-world countries entrenched in the agrarian stage of development and the modern, industrialized societies with a higher standard of living. Is Britain a modern, industrialized country with a high standard of living seen throughout Western Europe? Is Egypt a modern, industrialized country or an agrarian society? Egypt has some modern conveniences that look like industrialization, but these things are imported from industrialized nations. Do you see tiny donkeys pulling overloaded wooden wagons alongside Fiats, Volkswagen, and General Motor vehicles on Egyptian roads? That is Egypt. One of the earliest societies to use agriculture to build the Great Pyramids on the Giza Plateau. Pharaonic Egypt used agriculture to achieve one of the earliest great civilizations. Now contemporary Egypt is trying to struggle out of the restrictions of agrarianism. Agriculture was a great human achievement 4700 years ago. Today industrialized societies have accelerated well beyond agrarian societies. The poverty of third world countries is due to the limitations of agrarianism. Egyptain Marxists claim that capitalists have stolen Egypt's wealth. Is that true? What is wealth? Wealth is money and money is an instrument of trade. Capitalists have made things that improve the lives of other people. As a result many people want to trade for that thing and capitalists accumulate money, the instrument of trade. Trade raises the standard of living. Industrialization amplifies trade and in turn raises the standard of living. What has enabled a handful of truly industrialized countries to achieve a higher of standard of living is due to the social evolution along with industrial development. In England we see in the mid-1600s the defeat of the absolute power of Monarch by Parliament along with the Glorious Revolution, and many other events that diluted the absolute power of rulers. The decentralization of political power and the need to get things done requires consensus. A consensus based on reason and logic of the European Enlightenment, and not habit nor tradition. The acceptance that trade must be fostered by social rules or laws led to the rule of law in a handful of Western European societies. The ideas of free-market capitalism, liberalism, and respect for private property enabled a few individuals with good (technical) ideas to create machines that vastly accelerated productivity. This increase in productivity allowed people with lower incomes to obtain material goods that raised their standard of living. The successful development of a handful of industrialized Western societies required the evolution of the entire society (political, legal, technical) over a 400-500 years period. The under-developed societies of today must undergo an evolution of their entire society. The successful establishment of a democratic republican form of governance is arduous but must be undertaken. It took Western Europe 4-5 centuries to achieve modernization. It will involve no less from other parts of the world. The dictatorship of Socialism-Communism allows for the seizure of private property. This is the same as the seizure of private property by Kings. In agrarian societies everyone must find new ways to make a living. The use of animal muscle power will not improve productivity. It was successful during the age of the Pharaohs. In the modern industrialized age it will only succeed in poverty.
