Lebanese Tribalism and Authority Issues
The article addresses the phenomenon of parasitic social structure in Lebanon, where groups shift from being tools for organizing society to means of wielding power, leading to ongoing corruption and divisions. It explains that this structure is characterized by leaders holding temporary rights and claiming to possess the truth, while promoting illusions of salvation. It relies on reproducing control rather than building modern institutions based on rules, dialogue, and development. The article also shows how interconnected parties, despite their public disagreements, agree on mutual interests, thus entrenching the continuation of the system and hindering change. It emphasizes the urgent need to stop reproducing these leaders, to refocus on human beings and institutions, and to strengthen the state and its institutions away from sectarian and familial loyalties, in order to find a way out of the cycle of collapses and ongoing destruction.
