Table of Contents:
- The Arabs are the most wretched people in the world today, even if they do not realize it
- A deep sense of malaise permeates every corner of the Arab world
- The Arab malaise is a period of history and it is now more acute than it was before
- Modernity was not the cause of the Arab malaise
- The Arab malaise is not the result of modernity but of modernity's collapse
- The Arabs' malaise is more a function of their geography than their history
- The worst aspect of the Arabs' malaise is their refusal to emerge from it, but, if happiness is not in sight, some form of equilibrium at least is possible.
