52 ultimately carried out through by the smart socio-political minds of to­getherness. Moreover, it has to be pointed out that there is a radical fundamental fraction within the Islah Party which is represented and led by Sheikh Abdulmajed Al-Zandani, Chairman of Islah Shura Council and presi­dent of Al-Eman University, and his group. The fractions ideology is based on the Salafi(or Najdi or Wahabi) interpretation of Islam. Com­pared with the moderate and tribal fractions of the party the influence of this radical group is rather rudimentary. In short, in theory, there is a great deal of cohesiveness in the Islah Party. Islah party has several well-known and powerful leaders; the party is not centred around one man or one group. It is an excellent ex­ample of teamwork and reaching common stands and the over all future interests. C. Organisational Structure and Process First of all, the party does have a written constitution and code of con­duct. The party is one of the best organised, if not the most, at the na­tional, provincial and district levels. Despite its status as an opposition party that has never enjoyed fully the blessings of being a ruling party, Islah has perhaps the most sophisticated organisational structure at the governorate and district levels compared to the other political parties in Yemen. The General Authority and branches of its counterpart at both the na­tional and local levels undertake the day-to-day operations of the party. There are nine departments in the General Authority, all of which are administratively under the General Secretary and Deputy General Secretary. The Executive Departments are divided as follows: Political; Organization and Rehabilitation; Media and Culture; Education; Eco­nomic; Social Affairs; Syndicates, Organisations and Unions; Admini­stration and Finance; and Outreach.
