Houayek's principles for Greater Lebanon
The principles laid out by Patriarch Elias El-Houeyek focused on building the Greater Lebanon State around four main pillars: defining the legal borders of the state, defending Lebanese sovereignty, establishing a secular and unified nation based on pactism and pluralism, and creating a modern parliamentary system that supports religious diversity. He also called for a civil state that emphasizes citizenship, rights, freedom, and encourages coexistence and solidarity among all sects. These principles formed the intellectual and political foundations of the 1926 Constitution, establishing the concept of a nation with a national identity and pluralism, centered on human rights and justice, and working to embed a balance between unity and religious and cultural diversity.
