Lebanon and the West, a tale of an itinerary, Henry Laurens. How did the loss of a century-old communication between the Lebanese land and the West occur ? Despite an undeniable democratie experience, a free press and a dynamic cultural life, Lebanon ceased after 1945 to appear as the western outpost in the Orient, the indispensable intermediary it had always wanted to be. It is not possible to blame this disinvestment on ' Arab face ' which was only one of the aspects of its reality. The belated Phoenician affirmation shows that the break cannot be imputed to the Lebanese alone, especially since it would appear that the West could not have two respondents in the Orient. The state of Israël was able to capture the images and imaginations of the West, while reminding it of its responsibility in the catastrophe that led to its birth. This left no place for Lebanon, which could slide into barbarianism
