About this product

Product Information

Following the Arab Spring, Syria descended into civil and sectarian conflict. It has since become a fractured warzone which operates as a breeding ground for new terrorist movements including ISIS as well as the root cause of the greatest refugee crisis in modern history. In this important book, former Special Envoy of the Netherlands to Syria, Nikolaos van Dam, explains the recent history of Syria, covering the growing disenchantment with the Asad regime, the chaos of civil war and the fractures which led to an immense amount of destruction in the refined social fabric of what used to be the Syrian nation. Through an in-depth examination, van Dam traces political developments within the Asad regime and the various opposition groups from the Arab Spring to the present day, and provides a deeper insight into the conflict and the possibilities and obstacles for reaching a political solution.

A biased narrative
The book is really informative where pre-civil war history of Syria was described with references, names, and events. Same quality of historical description and analysis is not maintained for the later part. It is difficult to analyse current situations any ways but for a person who is following media coverage of civil war, it is very clear that author is emphasising some events while just touching upon others.
