Abstract
By taking the lead from the ‘Arab Spring’, starting from January 26, 2011, the Syrian people launched peaceful protests against the Bashar-ul-Asad regime’s policies, but it quickly turned into a full scale civil war, causing the death of over half a million people, pushing Syria back into ‘Stone Age’. In the presence of external players, including America and Russia in opposite camps; the security state in Syria has become too complex. The US decision to pull out its troops from Syria has helped Assad significantly consolidate his grip over the country. Yet, a sense of durable peace in Syria is still off the map due to the interplay of multiple factors. In this research, Syria’s civil war has been analysed as a case study through a combination of historical, descriptive and qualitative research methods.
