Conclusion: Difficult Exit from a Prolonged Conflict

Abstract

The structure of this work sets out from the inapplicability of general investment theory to the particularities of the Syrian case. I was not expecting Syrian investment patterns to be similar to those elsewhere. I was building an argument that the differentiability of this particular case, given its historical and geopolitical context, is stark enough and finds its roots in the heterodox literature developed for the Third World. Economics, after all, is determined socially and politically.
