Articles AR History Politics 2020 Bidayat

ملاحظات على خطاب الجنرال غورو

Notes on General Gouraud's Speech

Bidayat

Gouraud laments the absence of Lebanon's delegates — one is absent because he himself ordered his arrest, while his brother the Patriarch sits at his right.

Memoirs AR Art & Literature History 2019 Al-Quds Al-Arabi

في صداقة إدوارد سعيد | القدس العربي

On the Friendship of Edward Said | Al-Quds Al-Arabi

Al-Quds Al-Arabi

It began in Dhofar and did not end with “late style”: a friendship that opened onto talent, grace, and commitment.

Memoirs AR Art & Literature History 2019 As-Safir

في صداقة ادوارد سعيد

On the Friendship of Edward Said

As-Safir

Edward Said's friendship, which began with a political invitation and a hidden intervention to lift a travel ban, spanned decades of intellectual and political struggle, and transcended controversy to reveal the depth of their bond.

Debates EN Political Economy Politics 2016

A Response to Manfred Sing

A “non-repentant Marxist” responds to an academic who read three pages of his book and declared him a liberal convert — do you suggest skipping democracy for the dictatorship of the proletariat?

Book Reviews AR Art & Literature 2014 Bidayat

إدوارد سعيد في «الأسلوب المتأخر» الوقاحة بما هي منهج فكري

Edward Said on "Late Style": Impudence as Intellectual Method

Bidayat

Lateness is not maturity but "intransigence and unresolved contradiction" — Said concludes with the method of impudence, and with Genet declares imperialism the exportation of identities.

Articles AR Art & Literature History 2011 Al-Akhbar

إدوارد سعيد في تطوره الفكري

Edward Said in His Intellectual Development

Al-Akhbar

Edward Said's *Orientalism* and his thought were appropriated and reduced by three currents; this reading reconnects it to his intellectual evolution towards democratic secular humanism, highlighting his role as a critical translator.

Debates AR Political Economy 2010 Al-Akhbar

رأسمالية بلا مصالح – وامبريالية من دون استغلال 

Capitalism Without Interests - And Imperialism Without Exploitation

Al-Akhbar

Debate: capitalism without interests, imperialism without exploitation — post-colonialism replaces the thing with its image. Arafat asked for "understanding" in exchange for oil; the demand degraded to "some interest."

Talks & Panels AR Art & Literature History 2010

ماذا ينفع الشعور بالذنب؟

What Good Is Guilt?

The "culture of humiliation" is surprised by revolutions — and Israel's "David" had double the combined Arab armies in '48. In civil wars: a duty to remember and a necessity to forget.

Papers EN Political Economy Politics 2008

Do Collective Rights Contribute to Conflict Resolution? The case of Lebanon

Politicized sects are enlarged patronage networks shielding members from the market and covering predation—and the solution lies in the existing constitution: a Senate for sects, a non-sectarian House for citizens, plus social justice.

Translations AR Art & Literature 2008 Al-Hurriya Magazine

عشر سنوات على غياب ايميه سيزير١٩١٣-٢٠٠٨، عودة الى الوطن الأم

Ten Years Since the Passing of Aime Cesaire (1913-2008): Return to the Motherland

Al-Hurriya Magazine

On the anniversary of Aimé Césaire's passing, the Martiniquais poet and politician evokes his return to the "Native Land," declaring his commitment to be the mouth of sufferings and the lover of his unique people.

Papers EN Art & Literature 2007

Orientalizing the Orientals: The Other Message of Edward Said

Edward Said's "Orientalism" reveals another, less-discussed message: how Arab intellectuals internalized Orientalist frameworks and reproduced them in their self-representation.

Papers EN History Politics Sociology 2004

Public Spheres and Urban Space: A Critical Comparative Approach

The text calls for a critical approach to the concept of the 'public sphere' in the Middle East, emphasizing that democracy requires popular power beyond theoretical debate to confront authoritarianism and the challenges of colonial history.

Book Reviews EN Art & Literature 2003

Edward Said’s Orientalism revisited: translations and translators

A reading of Said's evolution: from Orientalism to "Imperialism is the export of identity"—warning against self-orientalizing and Occidentalism alike, and admitting his book sometimes relapses into what it critiques.

Talks & Panels EN Politics Sociology 2001

Stereotyping the ‘Syrian’ in Lebanon, Arab Stereotyping

Bashir Gemayel reduced eighteen million Syrians to the singular "the Syrian"—and the entire political class adopted this stereotyping that redirects class resentment toward a neighboring people.

Editorials EN Sociology 1996 Al-Raida

Feminizing Politics

Al-Raida

Feminizing politics is not numerical representation but freeing politics from the patriarchy that produces authoritarianism—and the intellectual construction of Arab feminism remains an unfinished project.

Papers EN International Relations Politics 1995 The Washington Papers

Arab Democracy and New Geo-Strategic Realities

The Washington Papers

Has the West tried to impose democracy on us?—No. It exported modernization, not democracy, and always backed authoritarianism. The 1949 Zaim coup was about oil and Israel, not the Cold War.

Papers EN Art & Literature 1994

Edward Said’s Late Style

Three moments of Said: from critiquing Orientalism to "identity is its owner's creation, not the inheritance of a past"—and reducing imperialism to knowledge/power sanitizes it of occupation and exploitation.
