product description

Description

Coup in Damascus explores Syria's 1949 military coup by focusing on cost-driven political action. Rihan affirms that flawed monetary policies, disrupted trade, and recurrent economic interventionism led to the rise of authoritarianism, thereby offering a fresh interdisciplinary perspective on Middle Eastern history.

About the Author
Carl Rihan is a political economist specialized in decision-making and economic policy in fragile settings. An associate at the German Institute of Global and Area Studies, Carl models decision-making under conditions of economic uncertainty by applying cost-based and game-theoretic frameworks onto historical data. With more than a decade of experience covering twenty-two Arab States and Fragile and Conflict-Affected Situations (FCS), he advises on stabilization and organizational strategy by combining data analytics and qualitative methods. Carl teaches at SciencesPo Paris, SciencesPo Lille, and is also the co-author of Governance Cooperation in a Conflict-Ridden Context (IIAS, 2024).
