10095. THE IRAQI REVOLUTION OF 1958 AND THE RISE OF THE BA'TH. This paper analyzes the 1958 Iraqi Revolution and traces the Arab Ba'th Socialist party's rise to power in the aftermath of the revolution. The investigation begins with an historical overview of the 1958 coup. Political, economic and social causes of the revolution are considered, as are the central objectives of the new revolutionary government. The role of various internal ethnic and political groups -- including the Kurds, the Iraqi Communist Party and the Arab Ba'th Socialist Party -- in the eventual destablization and downfall of the Qasim regime are noted. Of particular interest is the rise of the Ba'th. The early history of the Ba'th Party in Iraq, its relations to Naser's Egypt, and its connection with its Syrian parent are discussed. Ba'thist revolutionary activities against the Qasim regime, including the attemped assassination of Qasim in 1959 and the 1963 coup which marked the end of his rule and his life are noted. 18 pages, 38 footnotes, 23 bibliographic sources.   $126
