Supra-Egyptian Islamic and Pan-Arab identities and acculturated Muslim Egyptian intellectuals, 1892-1952
This dissertation surveys the development of pan-Islamic and pan-Arab identifications
among two main groups of Westernizing-educated intellectuals: (a) those in the independence
movement launched by Mustafa Kamil (to 1918) and (b) that around the newspapers al-Jaridah
(1908-1914) of the Ummah Party and then, after 1922, around the successor al-Siyasah and Party
of Liberal Constitutionalists. Our focus on the conflict and interblending of Arab and Western
high cultures stresses impoverishing and positive educational and aesthetic experiences in the
age of imperialism as the motive for the pan-Islamic and pan-Arab identification that this
Muslim Egyptian elite built up.
Book 1 (1892-1918). The literature has over-stressed Egyptianist and pan-Islamic
attitudes in Kamil's Hizb al-Watani and Egyptianist and secularoid ones from Ahmad Lutfi
al-Sayyid's al-Jaridah --- doubly neglecting pre-1918 Egyptian Arabism. This study details
respectful or at least very engaged evocation from both groups of "the [classical] Arab Nation".
Neither group rigorously articulated a contemporary Arab successor-community, but we review
proto-pan-Arab interactions and disorderly transitional terminology in contexts of Arab World
literary activity that did point forward to the later post-1922 modern pan-Arab nation. Despite it~
particularoid homeland frame, pre-1913 Egyptian political nationalism already had features more
like linguistic nationalism. Dual-cultured, both Kamilist and al-Jaridah writers became more and
more aware of modern sectors of life that the standard literary Arabic of the classical Arabs had
to be extended to cover. They made the ultra-politicized Qur'an-defined deterritorializing high
Arabic their rallying-ground of struggle against the British. Language only instanced how
extensively the intellectuals had, by 1914, integrated their Arab-Islamic and modern make-up.
Kamilist pan-Islam, a spiritual stage ahead of Western nationalisms, had already synthesized the
global technology and economic drives of imperialism into the chipped-down essence of Islam's
wide community impulse.

independence. It assesses al-Siyasah alternation or conflict --- but, again, also
Kamilist-like blending and synthesis --- between (a) secularoid Western and (b) politicized
classical Arab and Islamic motifs. Post-1922 Zionism again alternated and blended this elite's
two cultures. Real data and prejudices from Western polities about Jews there blended into (b)
Islam's old community concepts and shrines to (c) define Zionism as an internationally coherent
Darwinian enemy.
Our examinations of the growth of pan-Arabism into Egypt's official community
ideology in the 1930s and 1940s show it was still often fitting well into Western liberal cultures
and technology. The new post-1930 establishment Arabism was only sectionally neo-classical:
advancing to a purely linguistic nationhood, it dropped fondness for Arab race or lineage in the
classical high literature and in Egyptian villages in order to integrate the diverse Arabic-speaking
populations (using the West's economic and technological modernity). Although the
intellectuals still developed affinities and outreaches to wider non-Arab Muslim and Eastern
peoples, the inner more unitary political community is gradually contracted and separated to
within the sphere of daily Arabic speech (we concentrate on Ahmad Hasan al-Zayyat).
The classical Arabs' language had some less Islamic literature and extending it to cover
all modernity was a joint enterprize of Muslim Egyptian and non-Egyptian Christian Arab
intellectuals. Despite patches of transformation from the positivist West, however, Islam held as
a community basis for the Muslim intellectuals: they could not carry through a fusion with Copt~
within abortive post~1922 neo-Pharaonic particularism and in the 1930s and 1940s failed to
adequately perceive within political decolonization West Asian Christian Arab groups that they
culturally appreciated
Assuming Data Integrity and Empirical Evidence to The Contrary
Background: Not all respondents to surveys apply their minds or understand
the posed questions, and as such provide answers which lack coherence, and
this threatens the integrity of the research. Casual inspection and limited
research of the 10-item Big Five Inventory (BFI-10), included in the dataset of
the World Values Survey (WVS), suggested that random responses may be
common.
Objective: To specify the percentage of cases in the BRI-10 which include
incoherent or contradictory responses and to test the extent to which the
removal of these cases will improve the quality of the dataset.
Method: The WVS data on the BFI-10, measuring the Big Five Personality (B5P), in South Africa (N=3 531), was used. Incoherent or contradictory responses were removed. Then the cases from the cleaned-up dataset were analysed for their theoretical validity.
Results: Only 1 612 (45.7%) cases were identified as not including incoherent
or contradictory responses. The cleaned-up data did not mirror the B5P- structure, as was envisaged. The test for common method bias was negative. Conclusion: In most cases the responses were incoherent. Cleaning up the data did not improve the psychometric properties of the BFI-10. This raises concerns about the quality of the WVS data, the BFI-10, and the universality of B5P-theory. Given these results, it would be unwise to use the BFI-10 in South Africa. Researchers are alerted to do a proper assessment of the
psychometric properties of instruments before they use it, particularly in a
cross-cultural setting
Leading Towards Voice and Innovation: The Role of Psychological Contract
Background: Empirical evidence generally suggests that psychological
contract breach (PCB) leads to negative outcomes. However, some literature
argues that, occasionally, PCB leads to positive outcomes.
Aim: To empirically determine when these positive outcomes occur, focusing
on the role of psychological contract (PC) and leadership style (LS), and
outcomes such as employ voice (EV) and innovative work behaviour (IWB).
Method: A cross-sectional survey design was adopted, using reputable
questionnaires on PC, PCB, EV, IWB, and leadership styles. Correlation
analyses were used to test direct links within the model, while regression
analyses were used to test for the moderation effects.
Results: Data with acceptable psychometric properties were collected from 11
organisations (N=620). The results revealed that PCB does not lead to
substantial changes in IWB. PCB correlated positively with prohibitive EV, but did not influence promotive EV, which was a significant driver of IWB. Leadership styles were weak predictors of EV and IWB, and LS only partially moderated the PCB-EV relationship. Conclusion: PCB did not lead to positive outcomes. Neither did LS influencing the relationships between PCB and EV or IWB. Further, LS only partially influenced the relationships between variables, and not in a manner which positively influence IWB
