Rejoinder to Elin Berg’s Review of
Lebanon’s LGBTIQ+ activism
Beirut is often touted as being a refuge for LGBTIQ+ individuals from Southwest Asia and North Africa. With its LGBTIQ+ nightlife, queer-friendly cafes, political organising and ‘queer’ economy, Beirut does provide respite and a promise of progressive development. However, LGBTIQ+ life in Beirut continues to have its difficulties, and the complex dynamics of Lebanon’s economy and politics are intimately felt by queer-identifying individuals. This…
Between Morocco and the mainland
This article presents a first comprehensive empirical account of the resident LGBTQ+ communities of Spanish Ceuta. The starting premise of the article is the interstitial character of Ceuta, which is evident not only in the city’s geographic disconnection from mainland Spain and its land border with, and cultural connections to, Morocco, but also in the economic, cultural and religious diversity that mark its society and position it at the inters…
The limits of modern revolutions
A Global Phenomenology of Whiteness
Contemporary international institutions are often discussed as part of a new liberal international order and a departure from colonial logics of the nineteenth century. While some have discussed the ongoing dynamics of race within international institutions, few have explored whiteness as the positionality embedded in such institutions. This article argues that the racial logics embedded in most international institutions, throughout the nineteen…
Listening to the Stories People Tell
This article considers how using poetry in research allows novel ways of thinking about problems in conflict and peace research. Specifically, this article draws from the epic poem The Arab Apocalypse by Etel Adnan as way to disrupt categories and characterizations of war and peace, and challenge existing narratives of the Lebanese Civil War. The analysis of the poem builds on the author’s queer-feminist epistemic position to challenge assumption…
Civilization and the Making of the State in Lebanon and Syria
Challenging Institutional Racism in International Relations and Our Profession
Attempts to create a more inclusive discipline and profession have been commended by many and derided by some. While these attempts have pushed for change, particularly with regards to more equal representation of gender and race among faculty, policies aimed at creating a more inclusive environment are often tokenistic, administrative and bureaucratic, and fail to address structural and institutional practices and norms. Moreover, the administra…
Sexuality as a Standard of Civilization
In recent years, acceptance and tolerance of homosexuality has become symbolic of Western liberal, social, and political progress. This has been noted in discussions on homonormativity, homonationalism, and homocolonialism. While some of these discussions have touched on the intersections between sexuality, race, gender, and class, this article argues that this relationship has been historically produced as a standard of civilization. It notes th…
The Lebanese Civil War and post-conflict power sharing
Lebanese political dynamics are often characterized by political confessionalism, neo-liberal economics, corruption, and its particularity as an Arab state with Western social orientations. Although these characterizations may seem, at times, contradictory, this article argues that they are part of a political structure that initially developed during the Civil War (1975–1990) that was sustained by Lebanon’s post-conflict power sharing agreement.…
Racializing Religion
In recent decades, international events and incisive critical voices have catapulted the concepts of race and religion to the foreground of International Relations research. In particular, scholars have sought to recover the racialized and imperial beginnings of IR as an academic discipline in the early-20th century. This article contributes to this growing body of work by analyzing both race and religion as conceptual tools of scientific imperia…
War and state formation in Lebanon
State formation in the developing world can be explained as growing centralisation and institutionalisation. To understand why some states struggle with state formation, or the processes of centralisation, the model provided by Charles Tilly, in his analysis of state formation in Western Europe, is applied to Lebanon, starting at the onset of the 1975 civil war and concluding with an analysis of the post-Syrian occupation environment. With the ap…
