Abstract: Since their separate independance in 1945, relations between Lebanon and Syria have always been conflictual, because Syrian nationalism never fully accepted that « territorial amputation ». Border closures, political pressure and military occupation were the methods used to keep Lebanon on a tight rein. The Syrian occupation, officialised by the Taif Accords of 1989, led to economic and political integration between Syria and Lebanon, which generated dilution. The Syrian withdrawal in spring 2005 interrupted that process, without giving Lebanon full emancipation from its neighbour
