叙利亚军人政治的历史演变、成因及特点

Abstract:Since the independence of Syria in the mid-20th century，stratocracy，mainly referring to military personnel interfering with politics，has become the important factor of Syrian political development. Before the Baath Party stepped onto power，the military group played the role of destroyer and revolutionist of old social systems；While after the Baath Party obtained power，the military forces changed into vested interests，their political roles tended to be conservative. Assad，since his presidency，set to establish an army with “purified ideology” through the Baath Party，which strengthened the grip of the army and made it more professional. The army also changed from an arbitrator among political struggles into a safeguard of the government. The number of coups reduced dramatically. The popularity of stratocracy in Syria has close relations with its social disorder and vacuum in power. Meanwhile，it also reflected the comprehensive effect of the constitution of Syrian troops，the tendency of its nationalist ideology and the regional politics. Although stratocracy got rid of the frequent coups and instability at the beginning of Syrian independence，in a long run，stratocracy is in an opposite direction with democracy. It，to a large extent，constrains the political development and modernization in Syrian，and in the meantime，it has influence on regional military conditions.
