This book gives a unique portrait of Syrian society through the workings of its criminal records in the three decades prior to outbreak of the civil war in 2011. Based on actual crime files from Aleppo and Idlib, in addition to extensive interviews with criminal detaineers, lawyer, judges, and court experts, this study manages an in-depth account of Syria under the Baathist rule of the two Asad regimes.
