Neopatriarchy

A Theory of Distorted Change in Arab Society

By: Hisham Sharabi

Focusing on the region of the Arab world--comprising some two hundred million people and twenty-one sovereign states extending from the Atlantic to the Persian Gulf--this book develops a theory of social change that demystifies the setbacks this region has experienced on the road to transformation. Professor Sharabi pinpoints economic, political, social, and cultural changes in the last century that led the Arab world, as well as other developing countries, not to modernity but to neopatriarchy--a modernized form of patriarchy. He shows how authentic change was blocked and distorted forms and practices subsequently came to dominate all aspects of social existence and activity--among them militant religious fundamentalism, an ideology symptomatic of neopatriarchal culture. Presenting itself as the only valid option, Muslim fundamentalism now confronts the elements calling for secularism and democracy in a bitter battle whose outcome is likely to determine the future of the Arab world as well as that of other Muslim societies in Africa and Asia.

La Braise et la Cendre

Souvenirs d'un intellectuel arabe - Traduit de l'arabe par Louis-Jean Duclos

By: Hisham Sharabi

Cet ouvrage largement autobiographique porte essentiellement sur les années 1947 à 1949. En 1947, l'année qui suit l'indépendance du Liban, l'auteur étudie la philosophie à Beyrouth, puis à Chicago. Revenu au Liban, en 1949, il s'engage dans les rangs du Parti populaire syrien. Après plus d'un demi-siècle le récit de cette aventure constitue un témoignage poignant aux résonances politiques d'actualité. La critique récurrente des travers de "l'intelligentsia" arabe traditionnelle, qui survit ça ou là, demeure aussi d'un grand intérêt.
