Abstract: During the mid-twentieth century, many countries around the World “made

national social and economic development a major priority. Influenced in part by both

economic and sociological theories (human capital theory and modernization theory

particularly), scholars and policymakers believed that universal schooling could be

achieved; and that an investment in schooling and an increase in the supply of educated

workers would lead to improved social and economic conditions in the world. Indeed

during this period, the international educational institution expanded dramatically”. 1During this period, Dr. Habib Kurani was working tirelessly at AUB to enhance the

system of education in Lebanon and the Middle East.

Language(s): English, Arabic and French
