By focusing on the Syrian Civil War, it explores the characteristics, ideologies and strategies of the Islamic State (ISIS) and the People's Protection Units (YPG), as well as the regional and geopolitical impacts of these VNSAs. The contributors also cover topics such as the re-imagination of borders, the YPG's demands for national sovereignty, and the involvement of regional and global powers in the Syrian crisis. "This timely volume by regional scholars and experts examines various aspects of the emergence and expansion of violent non-state actors in the Syrian/Iraqi conflict. The wealth of detail and approaches enhance our understanding of the transformation and dynamics of contemporary conflicts within and beyond the region." Keith Krause, The Graduate Institute, Geneva "This book opens fascinating glimpses into contrasting forms of "state-like" governance established by non-state actors, ISIS and the Kurdish PYD. ... It is an important source for students of the Syrian conflict, civil wars, failed states and hybrid governance."Raymond Hinnebusch, Director Centre for Syrian Studies, University of St. Andrews "This book is an excellent resource for those looking for an interdisciplinary account of VNSAs during the Syrian civil war. It makes a nice contribution to the study of violent non state actors and poses a set of new and pressing questions." Max Abrahms, Northeastern University."--$$cProvided by publisher. 000824831 588__ $$aOnline resource; title from PDF title page (viewed December 11, 2017). 000824831 61020 $$aIS (Organization) 000824831 650_0 $$aNon-state actors (International relations)$$zSyria. 000824831 650_0 $$aTerrorist organizations$$zSyria. 000824831 650_0 $$aReligious militants$$zSyria. 000824831 651_0 $$aSyria$$xHistory$$yCivil War, 2011- 000824831 7001_ $$aOktav, Özden Zeynep,$$eauthor. 000824831 7001_ $$aParlar Dal, Emel,$$eauthor. 000824831 7001_ $$aKurşun, Ali Murat,$$eauthor. 000824831 77608 $$iPrint version: $$z9783319675275 000824831 852__ $$bebk 000824831 85640 $$3SpringerLink$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-3-319-67528-2$$zOnline Access$$91397441.1 000824831 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:824831$$pGLOBAL_SET 000824831 980__ $$aEBOOK 000824831 980__ $$aBIB 000824831 982__ $$aEbook 000824831 983__ $$aOnline 000824831 994__ $$a92$$bISE
