Der SWP-WebMonitor Nahost/Nordafrika ist ein unentgeltliches, kompaktes Informations-
produkt mit ausgewählten Hinweisen auf aktuelle Stellungnahmen, Dokumente und Analy-
sen zu allen (außen-) politisch relevanten Fragen und Entwicklungen der Region. Bei allen
Titeln gibt es einen Link, meistens direkt zum Volltext. Grundlage der Erstellung ist ein über-
wiegend festgelegtes Set an Quellen: Webseiten, Blogs, Zeitschriften etc. Der Auswahl-Fokus
liegt neben Dokumenten auf wissenschaftlichen bzw. wissenschaftlich basierten Beiträgen.
Neben Titeln mit konkretem Länder- bzw. Regionalbezug werden auch solche berücksichtigt,
deren Thematik relevant ist für die Region. Der WebMonitor wird i.d.R. ein- bis zweimal wö-
chentlich erstellt, nicht aber bei Abwesenheit des Bearbeiters.

The role of the Syrian business elite in the Syrian conflict: a class narrative
Alatassi Siham
"As Bashar al-Assad succeeded his father Hafez in 2000, a new ‘state bourgeoisie’ was created in
Syria through means of liberalization and neopatrimonial approaches. In addition to the Alawites
who are directly related to al-Assad, this new bourgeoisie included Sunnis and Christians who have
proved their utmost loyalty to al-Assad. When the conflict started in 2011, many expected the Sunni
businesspeople to join the opposition and distance themselves from al-Assad regime. However, and
with the exception of three cases which are discussed in the article; this did not happen. ..."
