What was the main cause of the Lebanese civil war?

History
1 answer:
Trava [24]3 years ago
3 0
The Lebanese Civil War had a complex series of events and factors that led to its beginning. However, a simplified version of what occurred was that there was an fragile balance of power between militant groups from the Sunni Arabs and Shi'ite Arabs as well as the Maronite Christians. When the Palestinian Liberation Organization was expelled from Jordan it further unsettled the balance of power in Lebanon causing widespread conflict between these groups. In addition external powers in the region like Syria and Israel had an influence in fomenting conflict in Lebanon during this period as well.

When are secondary sources more useful than primary sources
Reptile [31]

Advantages: Primary sources directly address your topic and often provide information that is unavailable elsewhere. For example, the questions you compose for an interview or a survey will likely target your unique interest in the topic. Similarly, to test a particular hypothesis, you can design your own experiment.
Disadvantages: Some primary sources, such as eyewitness accounts, may be too close to the subject, lacking a critical distance. Others, such as interviews, surveys, and experiments, are time consuming to prepare, administer, and analyze. Finally, unless you have been trained in accepted methodologies, your own primary research in certain fields of study may not be recognized as valid.

In this passage, Hobbes discusses the nature of the government that people create with their social contract.
kherson [118]

Answer:

<h2>be completely powerful</h2>

<u>Further details:</u>

Thomas Hobbes published a famous work called <em>Leviathan</em> in 1651.  The title "Leviathan" comes from a biblical word for a great and mighty beast. Hobbes believed government is formed by people for the sake of their personal security and stability in society.  In Hobbes' view, once the people put a king (or other leader in power), then that leader needs to have supreme power (like a great and mighty beast).   Hobbes' view of the natural state of human beings without a government held that people are too divided and too volatile as individuals -- everyone looking out for his own interests.  So for security and stability, authority and the power of the law needs to be in the hands of a powerful ruler like a king or queen.  And so people willingly enter a "social contract" in which they live under a government that provides stability and security for society.

Probably the most famous set of lines from Hobbes' <em>Leviathan</em> book describes what he saw as the natural state of human affairs without government -- one in which every individual had freedom, but that meant it was a situation of "war of all against all," or we might say, every man for himself.  Hobbes wrote:

  • <em>In such condition, there is no place for industry; because the fruit thereof is uncertain: and consequently no culture of the earth; no navigation, nor use of the commodities that may be imported by sea; no commodious building; no instruments of moving, and removing, such things as require much force; no knowledge of the face of the earth; no account of time; no arts; no letters; no society; and which is worst of all, continual fear, and danger of violent death; and the life of man, solitary, poor, nasty, brutish, and short.</em>

Prior to the civil war more people living in the cities of what region than any other region
bija089 [108]

Answer:

Prior to the civil war more people living in the cities of what region than any other region was the North East Region of the United States.

Explanation:

For much of the United States history up till the civil war, the country's political and economic power remained in the North East.

This mostly included the 13 original colonies, which were densely populated, industrialized and rich.

However, after the Civil War ended, places such as Florida, California, etc began to prosper and a whole mid-west region (centered around Chicago) and a West coast region (centered around San Francisco) gradually began to have economic importance.
