things that come up is it highly diverse society. Today Lebanon harbours people from a wide range of different religious denominations – seventeen officially recognised religious sects –, predominantly Muslim and Christian (CIA 2012). This characteristic makes successful governance a true challenge. The area that later became modern Lebanon has been ruled by foreign powers since 1516, when the Ottoman Sultan Selim I conquered the land, until 22 November 1943, the day the French recognised the independence of Lebanon. The Ottomans handled the problem of the different religious denominations using the so-called millet-system that gave significant autonomy to the different religious sects (Traboulsi 2012: 3-4; Goldschmidt and Davidson 2010: 139-140). During the French Mandate (1920-1943), the French distributed government and administrative posts fairly over the various religious sects (Traboulsi 2012: 90). In 1943, the leaders of the various religious sects came together and reached an unwritten agreement better known as the National Pact of 1943. The agreement provided for a power-sharing system aiming for a stable independent Lebanon (Traboulsi 2012: 107). With its difficulties, the system established in 1943 lasted for more than 30 years until 1975, when the first power sharing system of the Lebanese Republic officially ended with the start of the civil war. In October 1989, the Lebanese Parliamentarians of the pre-civil war system came together in Ta’if, Saudi Arabia, to end the civil war. The result of the negotiations was the Document of National Accord, better known as the Ta’if Accord. The document formed the basis for a revised political system based on the power- sharing system existing before the civil war (Cleveland and Bunton 2013: 500- 501). Similar to the pre-civil war system, is the current post war-system based on the political power-sharing construction known as consociationalism, of which Arend Lijphart is the foremost proponent (Norris 2008: 24). The system that was agreed upon in Ta’if, Saudi Arabia, was supposed to be an upgraded model of its 6 predecessor, the post-1943 model. The question however arises whether the ‘upgraded’ post-Ta’if system achieved its goals, where its predecessor failed. The focus in this research will be on the results of the consociational power sharing system. This thesis poses the following question: To what extent is the power sharing-system in post-civil war Lebanon a success? Here, I will not determine ‘success’ in terms of whether the post-civil war system achieved the status of a ‘stable democracy’ as Lijphart argues (1977: 1). Instead, the focus here, in the case of a country torn apart by 15 years of internal sectarian- conflict, will be on a more pragmatic and realistic form of ‘success’. The degree of ‘success’ in this research relates to the following two sub-questions: 1) to what extent has the post-civil war power-sharing system had a moderating effect on political actors and the Lebanese public? and: 2) to what extent has the post-civil war power-sharing system achieved domestic peace. I have chosen these sub- questions because they capture two stages of the process power-sharing model is believed to spark. The first sub-question captures the perceived direct effect of the power-sharing model, whereas the second sub-question captures the last part of the process, in which the power-sharing model is believed to lead to domestic peace and stability.

  • Archives This Page Lists the Approximately 1,900 Archival Items
    Archives This page lists the approximately 1,900 archival items that are held by the N.E.S.T. Special Collections. The majority of these items are from the Syria Mission of the American Board of Commissioners for Foreign Missions (ABCFM), and later of the Board of Foreign Missions of the Presbyterian Church in the U.S.A. (PCUSA), as well as affiliated institutions, such as the American Mission Press, the Chouir Conference Center, the Gerard Institution, the Anglo-American Church and N.E.S.T. itself. Items range from personal diaries of missionaries, correspondences, institutional records, brochures, school yearbooks, newspapers, pamphlets and stamps. Photographs and maps are listed in separate indexes due to their size, location in the Special Collection Room and descriptive details. The archives of the Syria Mission were originally organized by missionary James Willoughby in 1966, the index of which is archival item 432. Willoughby's arrangement was not preserved during the transference of the N.E.S.T. library to its location on Ras Beirut in 1974. As such, in 2012 a project was initiated under the title Preserving Protestant Heritage in the Middle East (PPHME) with the aim of reorganizing N.E.S.T.’s Special Collections. During the first phase of the PPHME the archival items were indexed according to the order that they were found. As a result, only some items are grouped according to affiliated organization. Part of the next phase of the PPHME project is to organize the archival material into subject areas. As such, each archival item is given a temporary inventory number (as opposed to a more permanent shelf mark).

  • Political Posters of the Lebanese Civil War and Hezbollah by Megan
    Momentary Memorials: Political Posters of the Lebanese Civil War and Hezbollah By Megan Elizabeth Miller Department of Art and Art History, University of Colorado Boulder Defended on 4 November, 2014 Thesis Advisor: Dr. Kira van Lil Defense Committee: Dr. Kira van Lil, Department of Art and Art History Dr. Robert Nauman, Department of Art and Art History Frances Charteris, Program for Writing and Rhetoric Miller 2 Abstract The Lebanese civil war (1975-1990) is a product of its diverse participating factions. With more than a dozen political, religious, and social parties, the streets of Lebanon became flooded with contradicting political imageries, influencing public perception of the ‘other’ and inciting military action. Their unique role in Lebanon’s political atmosphere allows such graphics to transcend mere propaganda to become physical sites of memorialization, despite their ephemerality. Posters exhibiting martyrs, political icons, and spiritual references control viewers’ field of vision and prompt their physical accumulation around the images, much like one would see at a funeral or sculptural memorial. These images give cause for public commemoration. Though several militias are disbanded at the end of the civil war, Hezbollah gains notoriety for its rapid advancement, made possible, in part, by the party’s media strategies. Once dominated by images of martyrs, Hezbollah posters begin to memorialize moments in time – their subject matter as ephemeral as their medium. This thesis is an examination of political poster aesthetics and how such is situated within the larger discourses of art history and graphic design, ultimately arguing for Lebanon’s prominent role as an artistic hub in the Middle East.

  • Ethnicity and Values Among the Lebanese Public: Findings from Avalues Survey
    ETHNICITY AND VALUES AMONG THE LEBANESE PUBLIC: FINDINGS FROM AVALUES SURVEY Mansoor Moaddel In the spring of 2008, Mansoor Moaddel, in collaboration with researchers in Lebanon— Hilal Khashan, Political Science Professor of American University in Beirut, Johan Gärde from Ersta Sköndal University College/Sweden, and Jean Kors of the International Center for Organizational Development, Beirut, Lebanon—launched the first world values survey in Lebanon. The objective of this project was to understand the mass-level belief systems of the Lebanese public. The project was designed to provide a comprehensive measure of all major areas of human concerns from religion to politics, economics, culture, family, and inter-ethnic and international relations. This survey used a nationally representative sample of 3,039 adults from all sections of Lebanese society. The sample included 954 (31%) Shi’is, 753 (25%) Sunnis, 198 (7%) Druze, 599 (20%) Maronites, 338 (11%) Orthodox, 149 (5%) Catholics, and 48 (2%) respondents belonging to other religions. It covered all six governorates in proportion to size— 960 (32%) from Beirut, 578 (19%) from Mount Lebanon, 621 (20%) from the North, 339 (11%) from Biqqa, and 539 (18%) from the South and Nabatieth. The interviews took approximately 50 minutes to complete and were conducted face-to-face by Lebanese personnel in the respondents’ residences. The total number of completed interviews represented 86% of attempted observations. Data collection started in April 2008 and was completed at the end of September 2008. Turbulent political and security situation in Lebanon in the spring and summer prolonged the survey period. The respondents had an average age of 33 years, 1,694 (55.7%) were male, and 998 (32.8%) had a college degree.

  • Mt Lebanon & the Chouf Mountains ﺟﺒﻞ ﻟﺒﻨﺎن وﺟﺒﺎل اﻟﺸﻮف
    © Lonely Planet 293 Mt Lebanon & the Chouf Mountains ﺟﺒﻞ ﻟﺒﻨﺎن وﺟﺒﺎل اﻟﺸﻮف Mt Lebanon, the traditional stronghold of the Maronites, is the heartland of modern Leba- non, comprising several distinct areas that together stretch out to form a rough oval around Beirut, each home to a host of treasures easily accessible on day trips from the capital. Directly to the east of Beirut, rising up into the mountains, are the Metn and Kesrouane districts. The Metn, closest to Beirut, is home to the relaxed, leafy summer-retreats of Brum- mana and Beit Mery, the latter host to a fabulous world-class winter festival. Further out, mountainous Kesrouane is a lunar landscape in summer and a skier’s paradise, with four resorts to choose from, during the snowy winter months. North from Beirut, the built-up coastal strip hides treasures sandwiched between concrete eyesores, from Jounieh’s dubiously hedonistic ‘super’ nightclubs and gambling pleasures to the beautiful ancient port town of Byblos, from which the modern alphabet is believed to have derived. Inland you’ll find the wild and rugged Adonis Valley and Jebel Tannourine, where the remote Afqa Grotto and Laklouk, yet another of Lebanon’s ski resorts, beckon travellers. To the south, the lush green Chouf Mountains, where springs and streams irrigate the region’s plentiful crops of olives, apples and grapes, are the traditional home of Lebanon’s Druze population. The mountains hold a cluster of delights, including one real and one not-so-real palace – Beiteddine and Moussa respectively – as well as the expansive Chouf THE CHOUF MOUNTAINS Cedar Reserve and Deir al-Qamar, one of the prettiest small towns in Lebanon.

  • Title Public Opinion and Deterrence
    Title Public opinion and deterrence: an evolutionary game theoretic study of the Israeli policy toward Lebanon Sub Title Author 浜中, 新吾(Hamanaka, Shingo) Publisher Global Center of Excellence Center of Governance for Civil Society, Keio University Publication year 2011 Jtitle Journal of political science and sociology No.15 (2011. 9) ,p.21- 49 Abstract Israel's policies regarding Lebanon have been dependent on public opinion, which is volatile. The citizens of Israel did not favor the occupation of the security zone in South Lebanon because of the Four Mothers movement, which influenced the government to unilaterally withdraw military forces in May 2000. When Hizbollah attacked an Israel Defense Force (IDF) patrol and abducted two soldiers on the northern border, the Israeli citizens supported the decision to wage a war in retaliation. This study aims to shed light on the causal mechanism of the influence of public opinion on defense policy within the rational framework of deterrence strategy. I chose the evolutionary game theory approach as my research method in order to deal with dynamics of public opinion. My study yielded the following result: deterrence is not stable when the aggression level of the defenders is less than the level of the critical condition. The Israeli government made a decision to conduct a unilateral withdrawal under pressure from passive defenders among the people. However, the IDF could begin the operation in Lebanon because of a substantial number of supporters who hoped to retaliate against Hizbollah. As a result, deterrence was restored after the war. We can understand the implications of the case of the Second Lebanon War: the enforcement of conventional deterrence may occasionally require conflicts to occur with small non-governmental military groups.

  • A Lebanese Protester Holds up a Lebanese National Flag in Front
    Al Arabiya Will Lebanon’s presidential election ever happen? A Lebanese protester holds up a Lebanese national flag in front Lebanese security forces as they stand guard during a protest against the on-going trash crisis and government corruption, in downtown Beirut, Lebanon (AP) By Tarek Ali Ahmad Al Arabiya EnglishSaturday, 6 February 2016 is set to meet on Monday in a bid to fill the vacant post of president, making it the 36th time MPs have gone through the process in the past 20 months. The two candidates, Sleiman Frangieh - leader of the Marada movement, a political party and former militia group based in the northern city of Zgharta - and Michel Aoun - founder of the Free Patriotic Movement, the largest Christian political party in Lebanon - have each garnered support from their own parties as well as others in the Lebanese political scene. In order for a quorum to be reached, each contender must acquire at least two thirds of the parliamentary vote, and until now, both candidates have failed to reached the minimum. “I came to the conclusion that there will not be a presidential election in Lebanon in the coming period until we get a clearer picture of what is going on in Syria,” said Amin Ammourieh, a journalist and political analyst in Lebanon. “Neither Aoun nor Frangieh will win; it’s very difficult for either of them to get elected because neither is even able to secure a majority alone.” Both camp’s backers have stirred controversy within the nation, where allegiances never before thought possible have been formed.
