Beskrivelse
Summary:During the Lebanese war of 1975 to 1990, the only public university of Lebanon branched out into more than 40 locations all over the country. While this deed reflects the inner division of Lebanon, it also moved the University nearer to the country’s geographical and social peripheries.

It shows that by the perspective of social control, sectarianism and clientelism can be observed as related with, but distinct from one another.
