He is co-founder of the Lebanese political organization LiHaqqi,^[1] which ran candidates for the Lebanese general elections of 2018^[2] and 2022,^[3] having served as its spokesperson on multiple occasions.^[4]^[5]^[6]^[3] He has been a regular author analyzing Lebanese political affairs for the newspapers L'Orient-Le Jour,^[7]^[8]^[9] The New Arab,^[10]^[11]^[12] The Daily Star^[13]^[14]^[15] and Al-Arab,^[16]^[17]^[18] with contributions to ROAR magazine,^[19] Bretton Woods Project,^[20] Al Bawaba,^[21]^[22] BirGün^[23] or Green Left.^[24]

Education and research

Hassan studied Political Sciences and Media at the American University of Beirut and Paris Sciences Po.^[25] He holds a Master’s degree in “Labor, Social Movements and Development” from SOAS University of London.^[26] His dissertation analyzed class and power in the 2015-2016 Lebanese protests.^[26]^[27] He has research works analyzing Lebanese political platforms,^[28]^[29] workers exclusion,^[30] the impact of the Syrian refugee crisis in Lebanon,^[31] the 2019 Lebanese uprising,^[32] and several short research analyses on various Lebanese issues.^[33]^[34]^[35] He has worked as a researcher for several civil society organizations,^[1] like the Arab NGOs Network for Development^[36]^[37] or the Lebanese Center for Policy Studies,^[38] and was selected as panel moderator at the World Bank's Civil Society Policy Forum.^[39] For his work, he has received the Open Society Foundations fellowship,^[1] the International Labor Union Migration Journalism fellowship^[40]^[41] and the Chevening scholarship.^[42]

Activism and social engagement

He is co-founder of the Lebanese political organization LiHaqqi,^[1] the first organization to call for protests that triggered the 17 October Revolution.^[43] LiHaqqi also ran candidates on the Lebanese general elections of 2018^[2] and 2022.^[3] He has served as its spokesperson in multiple ocassions.^[4]^[5]^[6]^[3] Within LiHaqqi, he served on the Public Affairs Committee, Organizational Council, and Economic Justice Working Group.^[26] He is the co-host of the Lebanese Politics Podcast^[44]^[45]^[46] and the host of the Youtube channel Tafkeek,^[47] funded by the Open Society Foundations.^[1]

Political views and analyses

His political analyses have often been cited worldwide when analyzing Lebanese events,^[48]^[49]^[50] especially after the Lebanese 17 October Revolution.^[51]^[52]^[53] Referred to as a "protagonist in the contemporary Lebanese scene"^[54] and "a central part of the grassroots movement in Beirut",^[55] he supports progressive policies on multiple topics.^[56] He considers current Lebanese financial crisis a "total economic and financial collapse"^[57] because of the lack of access to "basic necessities". He speaks critically of the Lebanese political system, calling it "corrupt sectarian political establishment"^[58] and "political clientelism"^[59], criticizing the banking sector as "financial oligarchy"^[60] and Hezbollah armed strength.^[61] He has also been a critic of multiple Lebanese politicians, such as prime minister Saad Hariri,^[5]^[62] prime minister Hassan Diab,^[63] or Druze leader Walid Jumblatt.^[6]

When discussing the aims of the 17 October Revolution, which he called "uprising of dignity",^[64] he expressed support for an interim^[65] government of independents from traditional parties to fight corruption^[43]^[66] and save the country, "not save capital"^[67]. He also supported taxing millionaires to alleviate the financial crisis.^[43] He argues "the revolution has not failed"^[45] although it did not "achieved a lot".^[68]
