Authoritarianism, Displacement and Syrian Family Life

Reckoning with the State

About this book

Syrians living in refuge in Lebanon and Turkey during the war in Syria continued to reckon with the Syrian State as a direct and indirect force in their lives. Through an ethnographic account of everyday life in Syrian families with a variety of political standpoints, this book demonstrates how the experience of displacement was shaped by ongoing deliberations on the ways in which the Syrian State had and continued to intersect people's lives. It provides new perspectives on the co-constitution of authoritarian rule and displacement in a Middle East context.
