Organized in a cycle of "cold civil war", they marked the temporary epilogue of violent tensions which, since 2004, had divided the country, until the climax reached in May 2008. They constitute in this respect an analyser of the reconfigurations of the political scene. Lebanese: political (re) alignments, logic of political mobilizations, transformations of a regime subjected to strong internal and international tensions, at the end of this decade 2000 inaugurated by the Israeli withdrawal from South Lebanon, and punctuated by the Syrian withdrawal of 2005 following the assassination of former Prime Minister Rafiq Hariri, or the war of July 2006.
