Description
Lebanon Adrift: A Study of a Society in Transition. Samir Khalaf explores how ordinary citizens find meaning and coherence in a society struggling to come to terms with its past, present, and future. Lebanon faces numerous challenges, including the aftermath of war, regional rivalries, economic deprivation, and diminishing prospects for well-being. As a professor of sociology at the American University of Beirut, Samir Khalaf brings a unique perspective to this landmark study. His research sheds light on how individuals navigate these complexities and find ways to build a sense of community and purpose in the face of uncertainty.
