Tertia pars De comparatis comparandis: seu justificationis Regis Caroli comparatè, contra Parliamentum [[electronic resource] =] : Or, The third part of things compared : or of the justification of King Charles comparatively against the Parliament. Wherein is manifested and fulfilled the discovery that was promised, and left imperfect in the first and second parts of this subject, concerning severall eminent members, in both Houses of Parliament, and their abominable actions, even such as cannot in all respects be parallel'd, in the worst times of the King. With a demonstration of the end wherefore, and the means by which the insupportable tyranny, extortion and oppression of (those tophets and tormentours) gaols and gaolers (the very abstract of all the oppressions of this kingdom) are principally still continued and supported : with many other memorable and remarkable passages, both of information and caution to all the free born commons of England. / / By Am: Wilbee

Sommario/riassunto

This book explores the thirty-year trajectory of the Free Patriotic Movement that aimed to achieve the freedom, sovereignty and independence of Lebanon from the Lebanese political elite and Syrian



hegemony. It sheds light on the movement's activism, changes and sectarianism throughout the stages of movement emergence, persistence and party transformation. The author shows how the movement built on opportunities that culminated in its rise, both in civil society and nationally, despite a number of challenges. The book also reveals the formation of intricate units and communication channels to mobilize activism and increase commitment to the movement's cause. While discussing the significance of Michel Aoun and Gebran Bassil to the future of the FPM, the author asserts that various party dimensions and practices are conditioned by regional and international politics. Joseph P. Helou is Adjunct Assistant Professor at the Lebanese American University in Beirut, Lebanon. His research interests include movements, political parties, international terrorism, post-war reconstruction, state capabilities and areas of limited statehood. He analytically treats topics of enquiry in a holistic approach uncovering the interplay between national, regional and international politics.
