Description

Border Lives offers an in-depth account of how people in Arsal, a northeastern town on the border of Lebanon with Syria, experienced postwar sociality, and how they grappled with living in the margins of the Lebanese state in the period following the 1975-1990 war. Review "Michelle Obeid poetically captures the ardor and anguish of how Lebanese "yu-maddu", daily manage in an isolated marginal rural town on the alternately porous and securitized border of Lebanon and Syria. Her subtle and sympathetic account offers a window to the transforming, at times violent, reality as the inhabitants seek normality, recount the laughter and familiarity of the past, are upended by the vicissitudes of social life, and push through borders and boundaries, grasping at a modernity they alternately mock and seek. Obeid offers a vivid and riveting story of life lived at the periphery." Suad Joseph (Distinguished Research Professor of Anthropology and Gender, Sexuality and Women's Studies, University of California, Davis) About the Author Michelle Obeid, Ph.D. (2006), London School of Economics and Political Science, is Lecturer in Social Anthropology at the University of Manchester.
