Abstract
Examines the formation of a relatively durable state in Syria after years of instability. Examines both the challenges of state-building in a fragmented "Artificial" state, and the power technologies and outcomes employed by the Ba'th regime. Its combination of a military dominated one-party state with mass inclusion and social redistribution amounts to a distinctive regime type, authoritarian populism.
