Material type: TextPublication details: 2023Subject(s): In: International Security, Volume 48, Number 3, WINTER 2023, pg. 86-128Summary: This article draws on dozens of in-depth interviews with key informants in the suburbs of postwar Beirut, and the findings show how displacement transformed localities in ways that transcend religious identity. Over 80,000 people have been displaced from southern Lebanon because of fighting since October 7, 2023. If Hezbollah provides services and security to these displaced persons, the current conflict will strengthen Hezbollah's grip on the south of Lebanon when the displaced populations return, or further consolidate its influence in those localities in south Lebanon where displaced populations settle.Item type | Current library | Call number | Status | Date due | Barcode | |
