It rose up, reorganized itself, fragmented, and created new forms of solidarity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The book places Syrian society at the heart of its analysis, moving away from the geopolitical and strategic interpretations that have long dominated discussions about the conflict. It invites us to see Syrians as key actors in shaping their new reality.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-key-book-information\">Key Book Information:<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Title: Syrian Society in Revolution and War (2011\u20132024): Legacy and Transformations<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Editors: Myriam Ababsa (French-Algerian social geographer, who spent 20 years conducting research in Jordan)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>and Valentina Napolitano (PhD in political sociology, researcher at the Research Institute for Development (IRD), specializing in forced migration and political violence)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Publisher: Presses de l\u2019Ifpo (French Institute for the Near East)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Series and Number: Contemporain Publications 41<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Publication Date: 2025<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Number of Pages: 376<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Language: French and English Paperback ISBN: 978-2-35159-813-9<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Digital ISBN: 978-2-35159-576-3<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Available Formats: Paperback (Print on Demand), PDF, HTML<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Foreword by \u00c9lizabeth Picard<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-narrative-and-analytical-approach\">Narrative and Analytical Approach:<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>This book offers a multidisciplinary reading of Syrian society during the revolution and the war, drawing on field case studies that combine quantitative and qualitative analysis. It begins with a painful yet simple truth: in 2011, Syrians broke the wall of silence and rose up against the Assad regime to reclaim their rights to freedom and dignity. However, the popular uprising was crushed by a fourteen-year war with devastating consequences: half a million dead and wounded, more than 150,000 detained or missing, and half the population forced into exile or displacement.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But the book does not stop at this conventional account of loss and suffering. It goes beyond this to a more significant question: How has Syrian society changed over these years? It places society at the center, questioning the profound transformations that have occurred despite the daily destruction and violence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Structurally, the editors divide their work into three main sections, reflecting the fundamental dimensions of these transformations:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Individual and collective journeys: This section focuses on transformations in family life and gender relations, particularly in exile.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Economic dynamics, subsistence, and humanitarian aid: This section analyzes agricultural migrations and ethical economies in wartime.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Political reconfigurations, governance structures, and forms of mobilization: This section addresses grassroots self-governance, transitional justice, and sectarian formations in wartime.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-thematic-analysis\">Thematic analysis:<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>First, society under the microscope \u2013 social transformations and gender relations:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Editor Myriam Ababsa devotes a significant portion of her analysis to examining the transformations of migration and gender relations. The book asks: How did the revolution and the war affect relations between men and women in Syria and neighboring countries (Turkey, Lebanon, and Jordan)?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Here, we find a detailed account of the role of women during the war, as they assumed multiple roles to support their families in the absence of men (due to death, arrest, or fighting). Women were no longer merely housewives; they became property and landowners. The book also highlights that women&#8217;s role was not limited to the daily struggle for survival; they also participated in demonstrations and joined various political formations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This profound shift in gender roles redefines family and societal relationships entirely and raises new questions about what will happen after the war. However, analysts\u2014including Peter Harling\u2014warn of the complexity of the picture: Syrian society has become increasingly fragmented, and the paths taken by each region have diverged.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Secondly, the economy in wartime\u2014collapse and its aftermath:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In a remarkable analytical chapter, the book discusses the Syrian economy during wartime. Peter Harling points out that the economic collapse occurred in the first two years of the war, but what followed was more significant: how society turned on itself and extracted all remaining resources.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>He adds that \u201cSyria was an entrepreneurial society.\u201d This entrepreneurial spirit was evident in financial relations during the economic sanctions, as well as in women\u2019s economic initiatives. The book also addresses environmental transformations related to the war, such as water management in conflict zones.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In this context, the book demonstrates how the economy became a tool for survival, an arena for conflict, and simultaneously a space for creativity and daily resistance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Third, Governance and Politics \u2013 Personal Experiences and Justice:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The third section of the book offers in-depth analyses of the governance patterns that emerged during the war. The researchers pose pivotal questions: How did forms of \u201cgovernance from below\u201d arise in the absence of the state? How inclusive and decentralized were they?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The chapter on transitional justice in the Syrian context also examines how the Syrian diaspora has mobilized new spaces for justice and accountability.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Here, the analysis connects to the regional dimension:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>How has the diaspora contributed to Lebanon, Jordan, and Turkey are creating new legal and political frameworks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The book also discusses sectarian transformations in wartime through a case study of the mass abduction of Druze in Suwaida by the Islamic State (July 2018). This helps to understand how sectarian identity is transformed under sectarian violence and its impact on the future of coexistence in Syria.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Fourth, a geopolitical overview \u2013 new maps of Syria:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The chapter by Matthieu Rey, &#8220;Syrian Territories in Recomposition,&#8221; adds a crucial spatial dimension. It examines the geopolitics of Syria from a long-term perspective, tracing how power and sovereignty have been distributed across Syrian territory during the years of war. This argument rests on the idea that wars not only change regimes but also reshape the relationship between urban and rural areas, and between the center and the periphery.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Most striking is the book&#8217;s introduction of the concept of &#8220;irreversible transformations.&#8221; As stated in the introduction, the fourteen years of revolution and war have not only left deep scars but have also given rise to new patterns of living, thinking, and organizing that may make any return to the pre-2011 era impossible.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-strengths-of-the-book\">Strengths of the book:<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Putting society in the spotlight:<br>One of the book&#8217;s greatest achievements is that it moves Syrians from the realm of passive victims to that of historical actors. Instead of viewing the Syrian conflict through the lenses of competing regional and international powers (Iran, Russia, Turkey, and the United States), it refocuses attention on those who suffered, those who struggled, those who dreamed, and those who devised new ways to survive and resist.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Methodological diversity and multidisciplinary approach:<br>The book combines political sociology, social geography, economics, and gender studies, providing the reader with a comprehensive picture of the transformations. This multidisciplinary approach is essential for understanding a reality as complex as the Syrian war.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Field Documentation and Reliance on Syrian Researchers:<br>According to Peter Harling, the research methodology relied on employing Syrian colleagues and consultants, providing them with the necessary training and support for fieldwork. This ensures an analytical depth that is not provided by research that only looks from the outside.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The Long Timeframe:<br>The book does not confine itself to the 14 years of war alone, but places the transformations within their extended historical context. This is demonstrated by the concept of a &#8220;diachronic approach across territories,&#8221; which allows for a deeper understanding of the historical roots of the changes.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-the-book-s-specific-contributions\">The Book&#8217;s Specific Contributions:<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>The book offers significant qualitative contributions:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>First<\/strong>, it provides tools for understanding the transformations that have taken place since the fall of the regime on December 8, 2014. The challenges of the transitional phase cannot be understood without grasping what happened to society during the long years of war.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Second<\/strong>, it reveals the dialectical relationship between revolution and war. Instead of viewing them as two separate phases, the book argues that the revolution generated its own transformations even in its most violent moments, and that the war itself was fertile ground for new struggles and innovative forms of solidarity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Third<\/strong>, the book focuses on the diaspora as a space for transformation. By examining Syrian communities in Turkey, Lebanon, and Jordan, it transcends the geographical boundaries of Syria and demonstrates how exile served as a crucible for redefining political and civic identity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-critique-and-discussion\">Critique and Discussion:<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Of course, no academic work is without points open to debate. One such point is:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>The book&#8217;s emphasis on the anthropological dimension over a comprehensive political analysis: A reader seeking a complete political narrative (regional divisions, power dynamics between factions, and the roles of regional powers) might feel that the book doesn&#8217;t fully meet their expectations. It focuses on social, economic, and gender transformations, rather than high politics in the traditional sense.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The absence of chapters directly addressing military and factional transformations: While the third section discusses governance and organizational structures, military developments and the formation of armed factions have not received independent analysis, a point of interest to researchers concerned with the military dimension of the conflict.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Language: Its availability only in French and English may pose a barrier for Arab readers, although the book&#8217;s discussion sessions were also held in Arabic.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-conclusion\">Conclusion:<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Ultimately, this book fills a genuine knowledge gap in the Syrian context. It is not a history of the war in the traditional sense, nor even a political history of the revolution. Rather, it is a book about the people who lived through the war and the revolution, and about their profound transformations. It is essential reading for any researcher, activist, or anyone interested in understanding what has happened in Syria over the past fourteen years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With the fall of the regime, Syrians face an even greater challenge: rebuilding a state and society from the ruins of decades of tyranny. This task cannot succeed without a fundamental understanding of the social, economic, and gender transformations that occurred during the revolution and the war. This book makes a significant contribution in this direction, calling for reflection on &#8220;Syria&#8217;s future&#8221; based on a careful reading of its present and recent past.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For those seeking profound answers to &#8220;What really happened to Syrians?&#8221; and &#8220;How did they change?&#8221;, this book offers a vital roadmap at a time that demands an informed understanding of the transformations within the society that made the revolution and endured the war.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, a major obstacle to the widespread benefit of this valuable work remains: language. The fact that the book is only available in English and French deprives the vast majority of Syrians (including decision-makers and civil society) of direct access to its insightful analyses. Therefore, we recommend that this book be translated into Arabic as soon as possible, either by the publisher itself or through an initiative by research centers or funding bodies interested in disseminating knowledge about the Syrian revolution and war.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>An analytical journey through the book &#8220;Syrian Society in Revolution and War
