520    In The Arab Cocoon, author Tarek Heggy explores the 
       reasons behind the widespread refusal of Arabic-speaking 
       societies to join in the march towards modernity and 
       progress. The refusal, according to Heggy, is due to three
       constraints, namely: (1) a widespread anti-modernity and 
       anti-integration religious Islamic movement; (2) out-dated
       educational systems; and (3) unhealthy hatred of the 
       'other'. He suggests that the systematic rejection of 
       modernity and progress which has resulted from these three
       constraints is the direct cause for the confrontation 
       between most of the Arabic-speaking peoples.
