Kataeb Party
The Lebanese Phalanges Party (Arabic: حزب الكتائب اللبنانية Ḥizb al-Katā’ib al-Lubnānīya), better known in English as the Phalange (Arabic: الكتائب al-Katā’ib), is a Christian right-wing political party in Lebanon. Although it is officially secular, it is mainly supported by Maronite Christians. The party played a major role in the Lebanese Civil War (1975–90). In decline in the late 1980s and 1990s, the party slowly re-emerged since the early 2000s. It is now part of the March 14 Alliance.
Names
The Lebanese Phalanges Party is also known as Phalanges Libanaises in French and either Kataeb (الكتائب اللبنانية al-Katā’ib al-Lubnānīya) or Phalangist Party (حزب الكتائب اللبنانية Ḥizb al-Katā’ib al-Lubnānīya) in Arabic. Kataeb is the plural of Katiba which is a translation into Arabic of the Greek word phalanx ("battalion") which is also the origin of the Spanish term Falange.
History
Origins
The Kataeb party was formed in 1936 as a Maronite paramilitary youth organization by Pierre Gemayel who modeled the party after Spanish Falange and Italian Fascist parties he had observed as an Olympic athlete during the 1936 Summer Olympics held in Berlin, then Nazi Germany. The movement's uniforms originally included brown shirts and members used the Roman salute.
