Why did the Lebanese state, the most open and democratic political
system in the Middle East, break down between 1967 and 1976? In
this major contribution to the debate, Fazel el-Khazen rejects the
standard explanations of the Lebanese Civil War and argues instead
that the causes were due to the official state ideology, which
recognized diversity, dissent and a highly pluralistic population,
and then specific external factors: pressures from the Arab-Israeli
Conflict, inter-Arab rivalries, and the Palestine Liberation
Organization's close connection to Lebanese politics. Using an
historical analysis, el-Khazen sheds light on the political
situation of the country in the lead up to the conflict and the
major role Lebanon's neighbours had in the events. The detailed and
comprehensive account uses interviews with the key protagonists in
the civil war and analysis of unpublished sources to reveal how and
why the breakdown took place.
