This book argues that Armenians around the world - in the face of the Genocide, and despite the absence of an independent nation-state after World War I - developed dynamic socio-political, cultural, ideological and ecclesiastical centres. And it focuses on one such centre, Beirut, in the postcolonial 1940s and 1950s. Tsolin Nalbantian explores Armenians' discursive re-positioning within the newly independent Lebanese nation-state; the political-cultural impact (in Lebanon as well as Syria) of the 1946-8 repatriation initiative to Soviet Armenia; the 1956 Catholicos election; and the 1957 Lebanese elections and 1958 mini-civil war. What emerges is a post-Genocide Armenian history of - principally - power, renewal and presence, rather than one of loss and absence.

L’Orient-Express : du nom d’« un train qui se hâte lentement ». Dès sa naissance, le magazine jouait l’effronterie et la contradiction. Il affichait des ambitions assumées : « être un journal arabe en français », en renouant le lien rompu entre le Liban réel, « arabe d’identité et d’appartenance » comme le formule le texte constitutionnel, et un public francophone volontairement ou non ignorant de faits politiques, sociaux, culturels qui traversent le pays. Faire de la langue française un outil d’ouverture plutôt que d’exclusion. Faire qu’au sein du Liban, sédimenté de mémoires concurrentes et d’affrontements guerriers, un terreau commun se cultive, et que vers le reste du monde, les regards, rendus curieux, se tournent. Être « ici et ailleurs ». Créer des « transcultures » où se côtoieraient Fayruz et Patti Smith, Gilles Deleuze et Tayeb Salih, Portishead et Edward Saïd, Salman Rushdie et NTM, Allen Ginsberg et Ounsi El Hage. Cette identité multipliant les lignes, les facettes, n’empêchait nullement des prises de position continuellement réaffirmées. D’un mois à l’autre, L’Orient-Express n’a eu de cesse d’appeler de ses vœux un Liban démocratique, laïc et indépendant, dans le maintien des solidarités interarabes. La tragédie palestinienne est rappelée chaque fois que la ponctue un nouvel espoir, rare, ou un nouveau crime. C’est en priorité aux jeunes que L’Orient-Express désirait faire entendre ses appels au réveil politique, pour qu’ils se battent pour une individuation de l’espace public et leur droit au plaisir. Le premier numéro, novembre 1995 : « Quand la politique faisait rêver », saluait les révoltes estudiantines des années 1960 et 1970. Le dernier, février 1998 : « Étudiants, et maintenant que faire ? », était consacré aux manifestations étudiantes de décembre 1997. Et puis l’insolence pourtant salutaire de cette aventure journalistique a été intimée au silence. Trop de brèches ouvertes dans un après-guerre amnésique... Cette troisième édition des…

This book is about the laissez-faire strategy for economic development, a strategy inspired by neoclassical/mainstream economics, advocated by the "Washington Consensus", and implemented by the Bretton Woods institutions. Mainstream economics has taken legitimacy from the historical failure of command economies. But this view has not been balanced by an examination of the performance of laissez-faire economies, the closest to the pure market model. Lebanon provides a unique test case in this regard. The book assesses Lebanon's development during 1948-2002, including its industrial and financial performance. The dynamics of the laissez-faire system is separately studied from a Post-Keynesian perspective, highlighting institutional behavior. It is found that laissez-faire is not a sufficient condition for economic development, and can even be counterproductive.
