Book Synopsis
During the decade that preceded Syria’s 2011 uprising and descent into violence, the country was in the midst of another crisis: the mass arrival of Iraqi migrants and a flood of humanitarian aid to handle the refugee emergency. Drawing on firsthand observations and interviews, Hoffmann provides a nuanced portrait of the conditions of daily life for Iraqis living in Syria.

“A lucid, theoretically informed, and original analysis of statehood and sovereignty in Bashar al-Asad’s Syria.” —Laura Ruiz de Elvira, postdoctoral researcher, French National Center for Scientific Research.
