EnglishDrawing on my multi-sited ethnography in Christian Lebanese enclaves, this paper addresses the determinants that might convince Christians to accept post-conflict deeds (i.e., acts of self-immolation) that they should, on principle, reject. The issue is more manifest where Christian communities are minorities and where Muslim majorities offer the memory of their martyrs as a strategy of self-defence. The questions, therefore, arise: Could a martyrdom ideological succession exist and how would it fit political agendas in a consociational democracy?
