U.N, Diplomat Speaks at Annual Dinner
Arab Views Change
By BRUCE RANDALL
Collegian Staff Writer
Young Arabs face the dilem
ma of how much of their tradi
tion to change to keep up with
modern technology, and how
much of it to keep and still re
tain their Arab identity, ac
cording to United Nations Dele
gate Taliseen Basheer.
Basheer, senior staff mem
ber of J>e Arab States perma
nent delegation to the United
Nations, spoke on this subject
at the annual Arab Dinner held
in the Hetzel Union Building.
He. said half of the total popu
lation of the 14 Arab states is
under 30 years old.
He said the t the bedouin re
mains as the image of the
Arab. However, the ’ bedouin’s
have almost vanished from ex
istence; the new Arabs are re
placing them, according to
Basheer.
Changes in technology pose
the problem of how to go about
ciianges in tradition. “We
can’t ignore ihe past. We must

The U.N. Delegate explained
how the traditionalists present
an obstacle to these changes.
They are fighting any changes,
because they believe modern
technology is destroying their
world. The geography of their
countries is even being

Basheer said the completion
of the new dam on the Nile
River will end its life-giving
role. He predicted that in five
or ten years the dam will pro
vide a new source of energy,
irrigation of the desert, and in
short a new way of life. He
added that wi bin 10 to 15 years
there will be a jump to ultra
modern technology such as the
use of nuclear power for de
salinization of seawater and
for irrigation,
Even now, he said, modern
transportation methods are de
creasing the geographical dis
tances between Arab nations
and bringing them closer to

explained that the Arab stu
dents studying abroad will take
back modem ideas and social
concepts to their country.
Another process is the re
discovering of the values of
Arab culture that can be ap
plied to the modern world, ac
cording to Basheer. He said
that religion,, which is a ne
cessity in Arab thinking, is re
quired for communication with
other people. Their philosophy
is a belief in the “lasic pos
itivity and good in the world.”
Basheer said that these ingre
dients are necessary to build

action between American and
Arab cultures. He said that this
helps *o build relationships
underlying the understanding
between nations and leads to
the making of a better world.
