Written in a clear and systematic manner, this highly topic read fills an conspicuous gap in existing academic literature on the contemporary political environment and society in Lebanon. Divided into two parts, Part One examines the pre-civil war system, the circumstances of its formation, its unique characteristics, its weaknesses and dynamics and Part Two analyses how circumstances resulting from the civil war combined with essential pre-war elements to define the contemporary political processes in Lebanon.
