A Nationwide Pollution Abatement Program for Lebanon, Using Gis Analysis
A NATIONWIDE POLLUTION ABATEMENT PROGRAM FOR LEBANON, USING GIS ANALYSIS Richard R. Sarginson, Metcalf & Eddy, 30 Harvard Mill Square, Wakefield, Massachusetts 01880, USA; Jacques Ekmekji, Khatib & Alami; Basim A. Sayigh, Metcalf & Eddy; Armen Bious, Khatib & Alami; George Ayoub, American University of Beirut ABSTRACT Over the past half century, Lebanon has experienced rapid population growth, accompanied, in recent decades, by mass migration to environmentally sensitive upland areas. Many communities have laid sewer lines, but the country has no effective systems for treatment or disposal of wastewater. The future wellbeing of the entire national community, including its tourist industry, is endangered by the unrestricted discharge of raw sewage into its vitally important groundwater reservoirs and across its Mediterranean beaches. To address this problem, a national wastewater management program has been developed by updating and modifying an earlier master plan. A Geographic Information System (GIS) approach was introduced to record the characterization, analyze the needs, and generate conceptual plans and programs to serve more than 1,600 communities located in 68 watershed basins. Emphasis is placed on the importance of establishing a permanent institutional structure to enforce environmental health safeguards and provide effective monitoring of operation and maintenance as collection, treatment, and disposal facilities come into service. Preconstruction activities for priority areas are now underway. KEY WORDS Lebanon, GIS, Wastewater, Pollution Abatement INTRODUCTION From time immemorial, Lebanon’s narrow coastal plain has ranked among the great meeting places of world civilizations. For more than two millennia, Phoenician maritime supremacy extended throughout the Mediterranean basin and beyond, exercised from its major seaports of Saida (Sidon) and Sour (Tyre), and others, including Berytus (Beirut) and Byblos (Jbail).

All sources and references have been acknowledged. Titus Michael Kennedy UNISA Student # 48120324 September 26, 2013 __________________ ___________________ SIGNATURE DATE iii ABSTRACT A Demographic Analysis of Late Bronze Age Canaan: Ancient Population Estimates and Insights through Archaeology by Titus Michael Kennedy This thesis is a demographic analysis of Late Bronze Age Canaan (ca. 1550/1500-1200/1150 BCE), undertaken through the use of archaeological and anthropological data. The purpose is to establish estimates for the settlement population, nomadic population, nuclear family size, house size, sex ratio, and life expectancy of the people of Canaan during the Late Bronze Age. Previous studies have not addressed these issues in detail, nor had data from the entire scope of Canaan been considered, nor had a precise methodology been developed or used for estimating specific settlement populations and nomadic populations for Canaan during the Late Bronze Age. Thus, additional aspects of the thesis include the development and use of a new methodology for estimating ancient populations and a database of all of the Late Bronze Age sites in Canaan—both archaeological and textual.

Fallow Fields, Famine and the Making of Lebanon
FALLOW FIELDS FAMINE AND THE MAKING OF LEBANON A Dissertation submitted to the Faculty of the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences of Georgetown University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in History By Graham A. Pitts, M.A. Washington, DC June 3, 2016 Copyright 2016 by Graham A. Pitts All Rights Reserved ii FALLOW FIELDS: FAMINE AND THE MAKING OF LEBANON Graham A. Pitts, M.A. Thesis Advisor: John R. McNeill, Ph.D. ABSTRACT This dissertation narrates Lebanon’s environmental history through the lens of the country’s World War I famine. My analysis uses the catastrophe as a prism through which to reconstruct Lebanese agrarian life. Between 1887 and 1914, as many as 150,000 Lebanese migrated to the Americas. On the war’s eve, remittances from abroad formed the largest source of income for the Lebanese, followed by the export of silk. Wartime conditions made both sources of income all but impossible to obtain and the ensuing famine exposed the vulnerabilities of Lebanon’s reliance on global flows of humans and capital. One in three Lebanese perished during the war. Years of demographic instability became a crisis of excess mortality once the war denied the population access to its livelihood and the safety valve of migration. By taking the human relationship with the rest of nature as its unit of analysis, my study posits broad continuities between the late Ottoman period and the French Mandate era whereas most studies have seen World War I, and the subsequent imposition of French colonialism, as a decisive rupture.

An Anthropological Demographic Study of Bedouin Agro-Pastoral Tribes in the Bekaa
FORMS OF PRODUCTION AND DEMOGRAPHIC REGIMES: AN ANTHROPOLOGICAL DEMOGRAPHIC STUDY OF BEDOUIN AGRO-PASTORAL TRIBES IN THE BEKAA VALLEY, LEBANON by SUZANNE EZZAT JOSEPH (Under the direction of Alexandra Avril Brewis) In order to explain the timing and patterning of demographic transitions, studies are needed in societies either currently undergoing transition or where fertility remains high and unrestricted. This dissertation provides an anthropological demographic and ethnographic study of Bedouin agro-pastoral tribes in the Bekaa, which exemplify both these features. That is, fertility is high and unrestricted by widespread contraceptive use (completed family size is 8.9; n= 65); although there is evidence of recent fertility decline (total period fertility rate is 5.5; n=224). It is among the first anthropological demographic studies in the Middle East. To provide a historical portrait of Bedouin fertility, indirect estimates of completed family size were derived from interviews with 160 older informants about their post-reproductive mothers’ fertility histories. Very high fertility—over eight live births— is seen among women born between 1934-1960—a period that coincides with the commodification, peasantization, and proletarianization of the Bedouin economy. Focus on the proximate determinants shows high fertility is due to early weaning and marriage, low rates of marital instability, and low incidence of primary sterility. Low infant mortality rates (53/1000) and child mortality rates (16/1000) are due to access to high quality weaning foods and safe birthing and maternal care practices. Previous political economic research from historical Europe as well as Iran and Nepal suggests the centrality of class formation and caste stratification in understanding demographic variation and change.
