Aux Origines Du Drame Syrien 1918 2013 - Unraveling the Complex History of Syria
![Jese Leos](https://bookquester.com/author/paul-reed.jpg)
Syria, a country known for its rich history and cultural heritage, has been engulfed in an intense conflict since 2011. However, understanding the root causes of this drama requires delving deeper into Syria's history, particularly from the period of 1918 to 2013. In this article, we will explore the historical events and dynamics that have shaped Syria's current crisis.
The Fall of the Ottoman Empire and French Mandate
In 1918, following the defeat of the Ottoman Empire in World War I, Syria, along with other territories, came under the control of the French. The imposition of the French Mandate in Syria sparked resentment and fueled nationalist movements seeking independence.

Emergence of Pan-Arab Nationalism
During the interwar years, the region witnessed the rise of Pan-Arab nationalism. Figures like Michel Aflaq and Salah al-Din al-Bitar became prominent voices advocating for the unification of Arab states, including Syria, under a single Arab nation.
The Syrian Independence Movement
Throughout the 1930s and 1940s, the Syrian independence movement gained momentum, fueled by the desire for self-governance, the rejection of foreign influence, and the demand for democratic reforms. This period saw the establishment of political parties and organizations, such as the National Bloc.
The Post-Independence Era
Syria officially gained independence in 1946, but political instability, military coups, and frequent changes in leadership characterized the country's post-independence era. The political landscape was dominated by competing ideologies, including Arab nationalism, socialism, and Ba'athism.
The Ba'ath Party and Hafez al-Assad
In 1970, Hafez al-Assad seized power in a bloodless coup, establishing a Ba'athist regime that lasted for decades. Assad's rule was marked by authoritarianism and suppression of dissent, consolidating power within the Assad family and the Alawite minority.
The Arab Spring and the Syrian Civil War
In 2011, inspired by the wave of protests across the Arab world, Syrians took to the streets demanding political reforms and an end to the repressive regime. However, the government responded with violence, leading to the escalation of protests into a full-fledged civil war.
The Central Role of Foreign Interventions
The Syrian civil war quickly became a complex conflict involving multiple actors, both domestic and international. Various regional and global powers, each with their own interests, intervened in the war, exacerbating the violence and prolonging the suffering of the Syrian people.
The Syrian crisis, which has caused immense human tragedy and destabilized the entire region, cannot be fully comprehended without examining its historical context. The events that unfolded from 1918 to 2013 laid the groundwork for the conflict we witness today. Understanding the complexities of Syria's history is crucial in navigating towards a peaceful and sustainable resolution.

Les responsabilités du fils Assad dans le drame que vivent les Syriens sont évidemment écrasantes. C’est lui et nul autre qui fait le massacre de son peuple. Mais cette évidence ne suffit pas à tout expliquer, loin de là. Avant le fils, il y a eu le père. Avant le père, il n’y a jamais eu de régime démocratique digne de ce nom. Il y a eu l’occupation française entre les deux guerres, il y a eu le partage arbitraire par les Européens des provinces arabes de l’empire ottoman. Le tout ponctué, sans cesse, de conflits violents et de répression.Il y a eu aussi et il y a encore un ensemble de religions qui cohabitent mal, il y a eu un fort courant laïc (notamment le parti Baas toujours au pouvoir), un impitoyable jeu international, jadis les Européens, aujourd’hui Israël et les grandes puissances arabes et non arabes (Chine, Russie). L’héritage de souffrance est immensément lourd.Ce livre d’histoire est le premier et le seul à effectuer une plongée détaillée dans quasiment un siècle d’épreuves et de tragédies. Dû à un journaliste qui connaît à fond la région et son histoire, il contribue à répondre à la lancinante question : pourquoi?
