Why has the Middle East remained trapped in conflict while much of the West built stable, prosperous societies? In this special report, I argue that the answer isn't simply oil, colonialism, or arbitrary borders. The deeper issue is what a civilization believes about the value of a human life. I examine trust, political institutions, militant ideology, the concept of Imago Dei, and why ideas about human dignity ultimately shape whether nations flourish or collapse.
