In part, this crisis of secularism the usage of the term “madani” (meaning “civil” or “civic”) might be seen as a global phenomenon in light of the among a selection of key liberal and reformist Arab proliferation of populism tinged with communal prejudice. intellectuals, from the nineteenth century to the present.2 But while there is a global component to this problem, there The report also examines recurrent patterns in the use of are also particular regional characteristics.

  • Annual Report 2007
    2 Message from the President CDR September 2007 It was in 1995 that I was honored to head the Council for Development and Reconstruction for the first time. Lebanon was in the midst of the reconstruction program launched by the martyred Prime Minister, Rafic Hariri. CDR in collaboration with the government administrations, institutions and community was able to overcome the successive wars and ravages inflicted on our country since 1975. These wars savaged the nation, the government, the institutions, the economy and the infrastructure. Unfortunately, our astonishing achievements for the reconstruction were not accompanied by a determined reform effort to rebuild the country's public institutions and to restore the ties that bind our society together. Equally, serving society should be the ultimate concern of both politics and reconstruction efforts. Just when Lebanon started to move out of the reconstruction phase into an era of economic growth, the July 2006 war broke out transforming existing realities and changing priorities. Following that, and for the second time, I was honored by the Council of Ministers to lead this establishment that forms one of the Council of Ministers' most active tools for implementation. The guiding principles that were set down by the government required the CDR to work on three parallel axes: • Firstly, participate in the efforts to erase the impact of the aggression. • Secondly, continue to implement the development projects started before the aggression. • Thirdly, reformulate investment programs to conform with the government's reform program. Priority is given to the first of these axes, whereby CDR shall seek to modify some of its programs and projects established before the war, to fulfill the urgent needs resulting from the aggression.
