Substantial heterogeneity (I2 = 77.4%) justified moderator analysis. The type of religios…

NGOing and Its Imagined Afterlives
This article examines the reconfiguration of NGO activism in Lebanon following the catastrophic August 2020 Beirut port explosion. Lebanon's vibrant NGO sector, which flourished in the 1990s, witnessed another boom after the explosion, leading to expanding yet critical modalities of activist participation in NGOs. I argue that the recent boom simultaneously entrenched neoliberal and neocolonial forms of governance and generated critical communiti…

Entrepreneurial activism
Against what they considered the immoral politics of sectarianism, leading activists in Lebanon in the 2010s combined entrepreneurialism and activism to animate systemic change and build an effective nation-state. In doing so, they created an ethicopolitical subjectivity that I callentrepreneurial activism. Entrepreneurial activists articulated an ethical politics that celebrated patriotic citizens who work autonomously on both individual moralit…

While there is a growing anthropological interest in professionals as experts and powerful actors, there is little ethnographic inquiry into invocations of professionalism by less privileged communities. This article examines how professionalism in Lebanon was increasingly appropriated by low-income communities in ways not referring to any particular profession or occupational domain. As a locally defined category, professionalism indexed an urba…
