أفكار في الدولة اللبنانية: وقائع فشل وتطلعات بناء

Abstract EN

The current Lebanese crisis, with its accumulated historical complexities, has transformed into a national catastrophe, turning the Lebanese state into a failed and fragmented entity.

What remains of its formal unity is only the structures of paralyzed constitutional institutions and authorities.

Rational solutions for extrication seem to vanish, given the tangible decline in the production of intellectual elites and the political unity movement's inertia in the face of anything nonnational in thought or action.

Opportunities for a dignified life within the framework of a fair civil state governed by law have been lost.

This study is an attempt to rethink the causes and realities that led to the failed state, and to envision the aspirations for building a successful state in fulfilling its duties towards its people and its Arab environment.
