However, Lebanon&#8217;s sectarian system proved immune to the domestic and regional pressures unleashed by the Arab Spring. How can this be explained? How has the country&#8217;s political elite dealt with challenges to the system? And, finally, what lessons can other Arab states draw from Lebanon&#8217;s sectarian experience?<\/p>\n<p>This book looks at the mix of institutional, clientelist, and discursive practices that sustain the sectarian nature of Lebanon. It exposes snapshots of an ever-expanding sectarian web that occupies substantial areas of everyday life and surveys struggles waged by opponents of the system &#8212; by women, teachers, public sector employees, students or coalitions across NGOs &#8212; and how their efforts are often sabotaged or contained by numerous systematic forces.<\/p>","protected":false},"featured_media":3041,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"site-sidebar-layout":"default","site-content-layout":"","ast-site-content-layout":"default","site-content-style":"default","site-sidebar-style":"default","ast-global-header-display":"","ast-banner-title-visibility":"","ast-main-header-display":"","ast-hfb-above-header-display":"","ast-hfb-below-header-display":"","ast-hfb-mobile-header-display":"","site-post-title":"","ast-breadcrumbs-content":"","ast-featured-img":"","footer-sml-layout":"","ast-disable-related-posts":"","theme-transparent-header-meta":"default","adv-header-id-meta":"","stick-header-meta":"","header-above-stick-meta":"","header-main-stick-meta":"","header-below-stick-meta":"","astra-migrate-meta-layouts":"set","ast-page-background-enabled":"default","ast-page-background-meta":{"desktop":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-4)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"tablet":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"mobile":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""}},"ast-content-background-meta":{"desktop":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"tablet":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"mobile":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""}}},"product_brand":[],"product_cat":[127,30],"product_tag":[279,220,280,224],"class_list":{"0":"post-3033","1":"product","2":"type-product","3":"status-publish","4":"has-post-thumbnail","6":"product_cat-books-en","7":"product_cat-books1312","8":"product_tag-blizhnij-vostok","9":"product_tag-protest","10":"product_tag-protesty","11":"product_tag-religiya","12":"desktop-align-center","13":"tablet-align-center","14":"mobile-align-center","16":"first","17":"instock","18":"shipping-taxable","19":"purchasable","20":"product-type-simple"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.sabotage.ninja\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product\/3033","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.sabotage.ninja\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.sabotage.ninja\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/product"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.sabotage.ninja\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=3033"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.sabotage.ninja\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/3041"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.sabotage.ninja\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=3033"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"product_brand","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.sabotage.ninja\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_brand?post=3033"},{"taxonomy":"product_cat","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.sabotage.ninja\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_cat?post=3033"},{"taxonomy":"product_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.sabotage.ninja\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_tag?post=3033"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
