Hijaz Liberals Party and its Political Role between 1928 and 1935
Abstract
This study aims at highlighting the role of Hijaz Liberals Party in the end of the first one-third of the 20th century after the regime of the Hashemite in Hijaz in 1925, and the taking over of Al-Saud. This party came into existence as a reaction to the prevailing conditions during that period in Hijaz. Its members were active in east Jordan, Egypt, Palestine, Aseer, Yemen, Eretria, India, Iraq and Hijaz. Despite the political and financial support it receives from different parties, the British authorities' chase to its members and the Saudis' persistence to put an end to the party whose aims contradict with theirs. All led to weaken it after 1933, and it disappeared. This party was the last obstacle which Al-Saud encountered after taking over Hijaz.
