From the Back Cover
This book analyses the Syrian crisis from an international relations perspective. Developing into a proxy war, the Syrian crisis has been a battleground for regional dominance. It has also created an opportunity for new states to emerge in the world affairs scene. For example, Russia, which since the fall of the Soviet Union has retreated from world affairs, has reasserted itself by taking a leading role in the Syrian crisis. The Syrian crisis has had an important impact on interregional as well as international relations. It has also been a catalyst that reshaped the many interstate relations and allowed countries such as Russia, Iran, Turkey and China to play an increasingly important role in international affairs.
While the crisis led to an Iranian Russian rapprochement and to more cooperation between Russia and Saudi Arabia, the crisis drove states that have opposing views of the crisis, Turkey, Iran and Russia, to forge an alliance. China on the other hand, a country focused on its ambitious Belt and Road Initiative is trying to walk a fine line between the Arab Gulf and Iran. This book looks at the tools, actors, and structures that have emerged out of this conflict. The conflict is distinguished by a rise in extremism, an unprecedented use of violent non-state actors, propaganda and by a sectarian narrative which will have an effect on the region for the years to come. The only light at the end of the tunnel are the local councils that can create a foundation to stabilise Syria.
This book would be a valuable read for scholars as well as students of the Middle East in general and the Syrian crisis in particular.
