هل يكفي التضامن من دون حقيقة؟
في موجز السياسات «بين الحقيقة والتضامن»، يؤكد الدكتور سيمون كشر والدكتور زياد الصائغ أن الاستجابات الإنسانية وحدها لا تكفي لمعالجة أزمة لبنان. فغياب الحقيقة السياسية يعني غياب المساءلة واستمرار الأزمات.
ويدعو الموجز إلى استعادة الحقيقة كفعل سيادي، وإعادة تعريف التضامن كأداة للتغيير السياسي الفعلي.

Is solidarity enough without truth?
In Between Truth and Solidarity, Dr. Simon Kachar and Dr. Ziad El Sayegh argue that humanitarian responses alone cannot address Lebanon’s crisis. Without political truth, accountability fades, and crises repeat themselves.
The brief calls for reclaiming truth as a sovereign act and redefining solidarity as a force for real political change.

It is with much sadness that I share the news of the passing of the distinguished Palestinian historian and longtime member of the American University of Beirut community, Professor Walid Khalidi, whose formidable scholarship impacted the study of modern Middle Eastern history and whose life’s work was devoted to preserving the collective memory of the Palestinian people.

In his latest President’s Perspective, AUB President Fadlo R. Khuri reflects on leadership, listening, and the strength found in thoughtful silence.

في مقال جديد من سلسلة «آفاق»، يؤكّد الدكتور زياد الصّائغ أنّ التهويل بالحرب الأهليّة تحوّل إلى أداة سياسيّة لتعطيل العقل العام وتأجيل الاستحقاق الأساسي: قيام دولة دستوريّة سيّدة. ويدعو إلى الانتقال من سياسة الفزّاعات إلى سياسة المؤسّسات والمساءلة والمواطنة، معتبرًا أنّ أزمة لبنان ليست أزمة حرب بل اختبار نضج سياسي وأخلاقي.

In a new op-ed from our “Horizons” series, Dr. Ziad El Sayegh argues that the constant invocation of civil war has become a political scarecrow used to paralyze public reason and delay the inevitable: the building of a sovereign constitutional state. He calls for a shift from the politics of fear to the politics of institutions, accountability, and citizenship, insisting that Lebanon’s crisis is not one of war, but of political and moral maturity.
