We discuss political psychology within the Lebanese context and dive into issues related to shared identity, Lebanon's social pact and a lacking higher interest of the state.

Our conversation includes the role of institutions when examining common destiny, politics born out of October 17 and the relationship between groups and individuals and a sense of belonging.

Ramzi Abou Ismail is a Political Psychologist and Doctoral Researcher at University of Kent.
