Corruption in Lebanon

Corruption in Lebanon (Arabic: الفساد في لبنان) has been a severe and persistent problem after the end of the civil war in 1990. It has been described as a case of "post-conflict corruption." Once a taboo subject, it is now at the forefront of the public debate in Lebanon. Anti-corruption sentiment has been one of the driving forces behind many of the large-scale Lebanese protests in recent history.
