dc.description.abstract |
It has been known that the Druze are a minority in the Middle East and in Lebanon and have struggled to retain the political power they once had. After many obstacles, wars and inter-Druze conflicts, came along a young Kamal Jumblat and changed Druze political history in modern Lebanon, if not Lebanese politics as a whole, as well as Jumblat family history This thesis is a product of research regarding the Druze community’s history, with a focus on the Jumblat family and more importantly the Progressive Socialist Party. This project shows the transition of the party’s constitution from being secular working on socialist principles to a sectarian one working to protect the Druze community. |
