The Other Regional Counter-Revolution: Iran’s Role in the Shifting Political Landscape of the Middle East

The last decade has seen historic political upheavals across the Middle East and North Africa: a tsunami of popular uprisings that have brought down several dictators and led to momentous transformations in political consciousness, if not always to democratic outcomes. But the last decade has also seen a concomitant counter-revolutionary roll-back across the region: authoritarian regimes, entrenched elites, ruling classes, deep states, and reactionary forces have marshalled considerable resources to torpedo these movements from below.[1]

A decade has passed since the eruption of peaceful protests in Syria as part of the so-called Arab Spring wave that swept through the region. Syrians dispute when the actual protests broke out as they do over several other issues.
Over the past ten years, the country has witnessed several geographic, military, social and military changes. Perhaps the only thing that hasn’t changed is the suffering.
The Syrians are divided by many issues, but they feel that they are in crisis inside the country and beyond it, but the one thing that brings them together is suffering. It is difficult to find someone who has not been affected directly by what has taken place in the past ten years. Only a very small segment of society has benefited from the conflict, but it has also incurred losses in other places. It may have won on the ground, but it has lost history and the future.

After a decade of unfathomable violence and human tragedy that has made Syria the defining war of the early 21st century, the fighting has tapered off but the suffering hasn't.
In 2011, Bashar al-Assad and his government briefly looked like another domino about to fall in the whirlwind of pro-democracy revolts sweeping the Middle East.

10 years on, no peace after war in Syria

After a decade of unfathomable violence and human tragedy that has made Syria the defining war of the early 21st century, the fighting has tapered off but the suffering hasn't. It took time for the wave of protests to take hold in Syria, where demonstrations had been banned for half a century and the government seemed more entrenched than anywhere else in the region.

12 books you need to read about the Arab Spring

In early 2011, as she watched the removal of the graffiti that had been scrawled around Tahrir Square in the heady days of the popular uprising, followed by a “cleansing” of that space of revolt, Dina Heshmat realized she was witnessing the deliberate rewriting of history, a deletion of the people’s spontaneous discourse, to be replaced by a more elitist narrative.
Guided by this awareness, Heshmat sets out, in
Egypt 1919: The Revolution in Literature and Film, (Edinburgh University Press, 2020) to re-examine the Egyptian revolution of the previous century, looking into the country’s archives to find unpublished novels and out-of-print articles that reflect the people’s mood during what she argues was the early 20th century’s equivalent of Egypt’s Arab Spring: a popular uprising against an oppressive regime by society’s poorest and most downtrodden classes, that was later claimed by the nationalist bourgeoisie.
