Arab Region and Conflict Doctrine
The article discusses the phenomenon of sectarianism and sectarian conflicts in the Arab world. It highlights how religious identity is often used as a tool to create divisions and political and military conflicts, particularly through the example of the Houthis in Yemen. The text clarifies that sectarianism is not always the direct cause of violence, but it is often exploited to deepen conflicts and transform political disagreements into religious divides, making it more difficult to reach resolutions. The article emphasizes that the danger lies in turning religious differences into a means of political mobilization, which threatens societal unity and complicates solutions, even though there are laws and concepts of citizenship in place. It also questions why civic society has failed to eliminate these conflicts, asserting that an urban society is the one that knows how to turn differences into opportunities for human coexistence, rather than reasons for conflict.
