Summary/Abstract: Lebanonisation expresses a destabilizing process used to describe the societies, which have been deeply divided on ethnic, religious, sectarian, linguistic and ideological grounds and which are open to the intervention of big-imperialist forces and highly susceptible to civil war. The basic problem in Lebanonisation is the presence of a social-political structure built on an exclusive commitment depending upon ethnic, religious, sectarian groups and sub-clusters and, in accord, the absence of an interiorizing belonging to the secular-constitutional citizenship, which constitutes a national upper cluster. As shown in our examples, this process breaks the national structure into ethnic, religious, sectarian pieces and produces a political and governance model based on such representation. In this context, in order to overcome the system crisis caused by “the sub-national scale”, “national-scale” may be an important instrument for solution.
