dc.description.abstractThe negative impact of globalization is readily observed in today’s Syria. Ravished by seven years of internal conflict stimulated initially by Tunisia’s Arab awakening, this once proud state has become a magnet for religious fanatics and their wealthy sponsors in conservative Saudi Arabia and other countries far and near seeking geopolitical advantage. Not least Syria has experienced the seemingly futile endeavors by those in the United Nations and elsewhere seeking a solution to this country’s enduring turmoil. Military intervention by Iran and Russia has changed the configuration of the conflict at the critical point in time when Israeli and American intervention provides a dangerous environment for superpower conflict. All the while, Syrians remaining in the country suffer, and those seeking safety elsewhere are threatening to destabilize Lebanon, Turkey and Jordan and, farther afield, the cohesion of the European Community.en
dc.description.abstractNegatywny wpływ globalizacji łatwo zauważyć w dzisiejszej Syrii. Artykuł poświęcony jest siedmioletniemu konfliktowi wewnętrznemu, którego początek był reakcją na wydarzenia w Tunezji zwane arabskim przebudzeniem. Syria, niegdyś dobrze funkcjonujące państwo, stała się magnesem dla fanatyków religijnych i ich bogatych sponsorów z konserwatywnej Arabii Saudyjskiej i innych odległych państw szukających korzyści geopolitycznych. Syria doświadczyła daremnych starań podejmowanych przez ONZ w celu trwałego rozwiązania konfliktu w tym kraju. Interwencja wojskowa Iranu i Rosji zmieniła konfigurację konfliktu w krytycznym momencie, podczas gdy interwencja Izraela i Stanów Zjednoczonych stanowi zagrożenie konfliktem supermocarstw. Przez cały czas Syryjczycy pozostający w tym kraju cierpią, a ci, którzy szukają bezpieczeństwa gdzie indziej, stanowią zagrożenie dla stabilizacji politycznej Libanu, Turcji i Jordanii, a w dalszej perspektywie także dla spójności polityki Unii Europejskiej.pl
