Beirut is the cultural, commercial and economic hub of Lebanon. But to what extent has the city affected and shaped the formation and perceptions of Lebanese national identity? Ghenwa Hayek here explores how anxieties over the past, present and future of Beirut have been articulated through a sense of dislocation present in Lebanese writing since the 1960s. Drawing on theories of cultural studies, geography and history, the author uses an interdisciplinary framework to explore the role that spaces - from rural to urban - have played and continue to play in the defining, and re-defining, of national identity in the seventy years since the creation of the Lebanese nation state. This theoretical perspective coupled with a close reading of little-explored contemporary writings lead Hayek to question the predominant assumption that Lebanese novelists only became engaged in discourses about place identity and individual and social belonging with the start of the fifteen-year civil war and the destruction of Beirut's city centre. Instead, the book shows that particular geographical imaginaries have been mobilized to describe, question and debate Lebanese identity since the 1960s and that some go back even further into the late nineteenth century. This re-reading calls for a re-evaluation of some of the most predominant assumptions about Lebanon and the processes of Lebanese identity formation across the country's modern history. Examining a wide range of modern and contemporary literature, Hayek charts the rise to cultural prominence of the city of Beirut as a significant player in shaping perceptions of Lebanese culture and identity.

This book examines the legacy of Lebanon’s civil war and how the population, and the youth in particular, are dealing with their national past. Drawing on extensive qualitative research and social observation, the author explores the efforts of those who wish to remember, so as not to repeat past mistakes, and those who wish to forget. In considering how the Lebanese youth are negotiating this collective memory, Larkin addresses issues of: Lebanese post-war amnesia and the gradual emergence of new memory discourses and public debates Lebanese nationalism and historical memory visual memory and mnemonic landscapes oral memory and post-war narratives war memory as an agent of ethnic conflict and a tool for reconciliation and peace-building. trans-generational trauma or postmemory. Shedding new light on trauma and the persistence of ethnic and religious hostility, this book offers a unique insight into Lebanon’s recurring communal tensions and a fresh perspective on the issue of war memory. As such, this is an essential addition to the existing literature on Lebanon and will be relevant for scholars of sociology, Middle East studies, anthropology, politics and history.

Long the most familiar of the Middle East countries to Americans, Lebanon has become something of an alien. Those who have only recently come to know the name associate Lebanon with extremism, bigotry, and violence. Their portrait is that of a poor, war-torn land not unlike other Third World states except in the savagery of its divisiveness. Those Americans who knew Lebanon in years past, and there were many, have tended to err just as grievously by assuming that the Lebanon whose shattered landscape they see on the front pages of their newspapers or in the more vivid images of television is the same Lebanon they once knew. Geography is more static than society. Apart from literature on the violence in Lebanon - which is largely one-sided material - there is no body of knowledge dealing with contemporary Lebanon. The conflicts in that country both resulted from and created numerous and far-reaching changes in Lebanese society. Let there be no mistake - whatever Lebanon will be in the future, we have passed a watershed. Lebanon is not the same country it was five, ten, or fifteen years ago; the political circumstances have fundamentally and irrevocably changed. This book is an attempt to begin to look at the nature of the changes that have taken place in Lebanon. --

Thai Tea Armory Reborn! May you all always be healthy, happy and enthusiastic. On October 5, 2023, our Indonesian National Army (TNI) will be exactly 78 years old. Times have changed a lot, the geopolitical constellation has changed, the strategic environment has changed. So, the threats and challenges faced by the TNI have also changed. In this regard, all Armory Reborn editors wish the TNI a happy birthday. Hopefully the TNI can continue to develop, become more advanced and able to overcome all these challenges. In relation to changes in geopolitics and the strategic environment, the G20 Summit in New Delhi, India, has an important meaning. India, led by Prime Minister Narendra Modi, is considered successful in taking advantage of the G20 Summit moment to raise India’s image as a voice for the interests of developing countries, which are usually called the Global South. As was the case at last year’s G20 Summit in Bali, Vladimir Putin, the leader of Russia, was not present in person at the big event of the New Delhi G20 Summit. Russia is being targeted by the United States and its allies because of Russia’s “special military operation” in Ukraine, which led to a protracted war on mainland Europe. This war drastically reduced Russia’s weapons reserves. So, Putin’s meeting with North Korea’s supreme leader Kim Jong-un has attracted the attention of observers. Russia and North Korea are both being ostracized by the West. It is not surprising that Putin and Kim Jong-un help each other, including with arms and military technology transactions. For those of you who are interested in defense technology, we provide an article about submarine crew rescue vehicles. The Indonesian Navy had a bitter and sad experience with the sinking of the KRI Nanggala-402 submarine two years ago in the Bali Strait. At that time, the entire crew of the submarine died. In 2021, Indonesia did not have adequate equipment to carry out emergency rescue operations for submarine crews. So now Indonesia will buy a sophisticated submarine rescue vehicle made by U.K. We hope that Armory Reborn friends can enjoy all these articles. Satrio Arismunandar Editor in chief

In troubled times of heightened global tensions and conflict, (un)Common Sounds: Songs of Peace and Reconciliation among Muslims and Christians explores the contribution of music and the performing arts to peacebuilding and interfaith dialogue in interreligious settings. It asks the simple but endlessly complex question: How is music and song used in our faiths and daily lives to foster peace and reconciliation? Focusing on the two largest world religions that together comprise more than 55% of the world's population, the essays address the complexities of embodied, lived religious traditions by moving across and linking a range of disciplines: ethnomusicology (the intersection of music and culture), peacemaking, Islamic studies, and Christian theology. Based on research in the Middle East, North Africa, and Indonesia, context-specific case studies serve to identify and reflect on the significant roles of music and the performing arts in fostering sustainable peace. (un)Common Sounds investigates the dynamics of peacebuilding and interfaith dialogue as they relate to music's transformative roles in conflict and post-conflict settings. Classroom tested, (un)Common Sounds also provides discussion questions and projects for each chapter, a companion Web site (www.songsforpeaceproject.org), and an available documentary film to enhance learning in the academy, nongovernmental organizations, and religious groups.
