While nationalism (and pan-movements) is indisputably global, the underpinnings of its translatability elicrt no academic consensus. In locating these within the public sphere, this project critically engages with the print-media paradigm, shifting attention from circulating ideational contents onto other technologies of social communication. The exemplary commitment of Palestinian Pan-Arab Darwish al-Miqdadi (1897-1961) to voluntary associations, paramilitary organizations and pedagogical institutions begs the question of a quasi organic link between nationalism and the public sphere. His biography reveals how specific technologies are systematically singled out by individual agents in nationalistic pursuits. Micro-historical foci, for their part, help answer why scouting, schoolbooks and societies in particular were deemed conducive to Arab unity, even as they were embedded in, or framed by, the apparatuses of the colonial administration. Taken in conjunction, these three technologies not only map the global networks of an Arab nationalist in the making, but also show the transposability of sociopolitical forms of organization and protest at work. As both a civil servant of several future Arab nation-states and a global activist in the service of Arab nationalism, al-Miqdadi actually typifies a heretofore under-researched dimension of Arab nationalism: its linkage of clandestine and official societies, of militancy and bureaucracy. In effect, he thus exemplifies the ambivalent political subjectivity characteristic of Pan-movements actors.

虽然民族主义（和泛运动）无可争议地是全球性的，但其可翻译性的基础并没有引起学术共识。在将这些内容定位在公共领域时，该项目批判性地采用了印刷媒体范式，将注意力从传播思想内容转移到其他社会传播技术上。巴勒斯坦泛阿拉伯达尔维什·米克达迪（1897-1961）对志愿协会、准军事组织和教育机构的模范承诺回避了民族主义与公共领域之间准有机联系的问题。他的传记揭示了个人代理人如何在民族主义追求中系统地挑选出特定的技术。就微观历史焦点而言，它们有助于回答为什么童子军、教科书和社会特别被认为有利于阿拉伯团结，即使它们嵌入或由殖民政府机构构成。结合起来，这三种技术不仅描绘了正在形成的阿拉伯民族主义者的全球网络，而且还展示了组织和抗议活动的社会政治形式的可互换性。作为未来几个阿拉伯民族国家的公务员和为阿拉伯民族主义服务的全球活动家，米克达迪实际上代表了阿拉伯民族主义迄今尚未得到充分研究的一个方面：秘密社会与官方社会、好斗性与官僚主义之间的联系。实际上，他因此体现了泛运动参与者矛盾的政治主体性特征。
