- The Battle for Syria: International Rivalry in the New Middle East argues that Syria�s civil war (2011-present) was shaped from the beginning by external powers. It applies international relations theory and civil war theory to primary evidence in the form of elite interviews gathered in 14 countries, mostly in the Middle East, over several years. It was the first book to challenge the prevailing view at the time that the conflict was primarily a domestic conflict that later dragged in foreign actors.�
