Art. 42- The elimination of class discrimination and
distinction:
Class discrimination is the outcome of a corrupt social
situation. Therefore, the Party will always struggle for
the oppressed toiling classes of the society until such
discrimination and distinction disappear and all citizens
can restore completely their human value and can be given
a life under a social fair system where no citizen has
any priority over another, except of his intellectual
and dexterous capacity.
Art. 43- Bedouin Communities:
Bedouin life is a primitive social status that undermines
the national production and renders a large portion of
the nation paralyzed. It is a factor that precludes the
development and progress of the nation. The party is striving
to modernize Bedouin life and give Bedouins lands together
with the cancellation of the tribal system and the enforcement
of the State's laws on them.
