services which is central to the development of any nation were virtually non existent. As a matter of fact, country's potential for economic, social and political development is greatly influenced, by its Natural and Human resources in which the latter is their level of education and their physical and mental health.

However, as we are concerned, above all, the well-being of the Somalia's civil society, Fragmented society divided in the lines of clan lineage; Loose institutional and political framework; an State which is a source of wealth and power are the main fundamental causes of the crisis in the country -a legacy that had shaped Somalia's post-colonial state and its civil society-. Thus, without a very solid foundation, it would be short to understand deeply enough the nature of the civil-strife in Somalia unless we describe the essence of its civil society in order to get the real image of all the upheavals and miseries that is happening in the country. It is not because of the social dynamics of the Somali society which is imperative, but it is the complexity of non-scientific clan-cultural ideology that dominates in every aspect of the Somali people.
Thus, the people of Somalia and their struggle to free themselves from the tribulations of the war-lords and the other foreign internal forces, that dominate the socio-economic and political system of the country since the independence, need a very concise study and analysis to distinguish realities from assumptions, facts from theories and findings from hypothesis. I said that, because I believe, assumptions, theories and hypothesis can be applied to every nation and societies but can not have the same result of identical facts, findings or can be of the same realistic as all these related more to the senses and the values of the specific society (Hagi, The Collapse of The State of Somalia, Thesis, 2000). Therefore, with the help of my experience as a Somalian origin, I will not spare any effort to find a solution and a model of an alternative development to the Somalia's problem. My emphasis will be the macro-solutions of the crisis and the long-tailed terror in the aspects of an alternative economic development as well as the political and the structural organisation of the future-state rather than deeply involved the functionality and institutionalisation of the state powres and the government.
