From the Paper:

"National instability due to adverse conditions brought about by the presence of warring factions is often the cause of mass migration patterns that affect the demographic statistical information regarding the nation's perceived economic and political stability. In the case of Lebanon, the nation had a governmental system in place before the 1960s that was lauded by international concerns for its stability and functionality in reference to the nation's diverse population groups. This perspective is contrasted sharply with the years of civil war that wracked the region, particularly during and after the 1970s, when
extra-national interests became involved in domestic policy as both aggressors and supporters."
