Bashir’s facade and authority’s fragility

The article explores the nature of collective identity in Lebanon, focusing on the case of Prince Bashir the Great as an example of the contradiction between the public and the private. It explains how persecution, religious conflicts, and social stigma have led to the development of mechanisms of prudence and a division between the public and the secret, which has weakened trust among community components. This has resulted in problems in establishing stable relationships, feelings of superficiality, increased levels of corruption, declining civic participation, and worsening economic conditions. The article highlights how these short-term strategies were necessary for survival but ultimately undermined a sense of belonging and fragmented identities.
