Syrian society on the threshold of freedom the unfulfilled dream of democracy

Why did the revolution in Syria happen? That is the question the answer to which leaves no illusions. The Syrian Revolution began, because the society motivated by disturbances in other Arab countries wanted to break free from the dictatorship of Bashar alAssad. It was to give an opportunity to the young generation of the Syrians for a better life, and to change this beautiful and inhabited by hospitable and friendly people country into the ‘oasis’ of peace and prosperity. Today it is already clear that the Syrian ‘dream of democracy’ has not been fulfilled and the society was unable to establish a new order. The revolution in this state turned out to be other than those, which took place in almost all the Arab States and some Muslim ones. It was even different from the Libyan uprising that changed into the civil war. This rush turned into a blood slaughter a civil war on the scale hitherto unprecedented, and its implications drive to the reflection on the future of this state. The purpose of this article is the analysis of sources of change in Syria, as well as the prediction of opportunities to rebuild its statehood.
