Focusing on the propaganda conflict in the Syrian war, this book analyzes the competing narratives of the government and opposition, excluding the Islamic State and Kurdish-led SDF. It employs insights from international relations, psychology, and media studies to challenge prevailing views on the war. Key findings reveal that while the opposition succeeded internationally, it faltered domestically. The book argues that propaganda had limited influence, primarily reinforcing pre-existing attitudes, and emphasizes the nuanced reality shaped by these conflicting narratives.
