Qatifi Ba'athism

Zairian Socialism (French: Socialisme Zaïroise) is the state ideology of the Zaire.A far left movement Zairian socialism is often associated with Zairian ultra-nationalism,, (most often ),  and. It has also been accused of promoting African supremacy and state racism.

It was originally first developed by Sizwe Iolanda during the 1960's policy of Zairianization, which emphasised the union between the "ideals of socialism as promoted by Marx, Lenin and Mao, combined with the identity of the native Zairian people." Notably orthodox Zairian socialism (also known as Iolandaism) also emphasised what would be considered racist policies against the white minority of Zaire. Currently Zairian president Abidemi Oluwakanyinsola has embarked on creating the  21st century Zairian socialism which notably removes much of the previous racist rhetoric; however, instead it has seen increased censorship and greater industrialisation.

Core concepts
Zairien socialism is based off of the idea of a "peoples socialist republic based off of the ideas of Marx, Lenin and Mao centred around the promotion, cultivation and preservation of the three ideals of Zairian nation - justice, peace and work." In laymans terms, Zairian socialism seeks to create a communist economic and governmental system with a heavy promotion of Zairian nationalism.

Zairian nationalism is often associated with anti-colonial ideas. Rather then taking from the legacy of colonial Belgium Zairian nationalism specifies the creation of the Zairian state. The policy of Zairianization (at first known as Authenticité) that officially lasted from 1964 to 1978 perhaps best exemplifies this - with European Christian names banned, settlements and landmarks renamed, the banning of European literature and fashion and the forced deportation of those descended from European settlers.
