Syrias descent into civil war has already claimed an estimated 200,000 lives while more than nine million people have fled their homes. This is now the greatest humanitarian and political crisis of the twenty-first century. In this timely account, John McHugo charts the history of Syria from the First World War to the present and considers why Syrias foundations as a nation have proved so fragile. He examines the countrys thwarted attempts at independence under French rule before turning to more recent events: sectarian tensions, the pressures of international conflicts, two generations of rule by the Assads and the rise of ISIS. As the conflict in Syria rages on, McHugo provides a rare and authoritative guide to a complex nation that demands our attention. [Provides] a real insight into the political fragility that underpins much of what caused the current civil war An enlightening read, insightful and timely Sunday Herald Enlightening Robert Fisk, Independent Tells us with inspirational force how the Syrians have found the ability to speak out TLS [A] very timely modern history of Syria ... McHugo provides the reader with a high level of sound analysis. The book is written both with academic scrutiny and with the empathy of an individual who cares greatly for his area of study. Journal of Peace Research McHugo uncovers uncanny parallels between the pacification strategies of the French in the 1920s and the Bashar al-Assad regime today, exposing the continuous role of violence in the regions (flawed) state formation.
