Why is it that we constantly hear about the sovereign state of Lebanon in the news about the Middle East and still know very little about it? Lebanon emerged out of the Ottoman domain only to expirience demographic
upheavals, sectarian politics, two civil wars, invasions and assassinations. Understanding the tragic history of
Lebanon is necessary to grasp the current situation in the Middle East.
Join us for a forum on the geopolitical landscape of Lebanon.
This Event is sponsored by the Programming Committee of the Stamford Regional Campus.
