My research sought to better understand these issues and the lived experience and human condition of the Syrian Diaspora. In my research, I thought through this main question: How do Syrian newcomers come to make sense of what it means to have lost a home and a homeland as it relates to the Syrian Diasporic experience? I broached the Syrian diasporic subject by thinking through an anti-Orientalist, anti- colonial framework, and I engaged autoethnography as a research methodology and as a method as I reflexively thought through and wrote from my own personal experience as a Syrian immigrant so that I could better understand the Syrian refugee’s human experience. -

In an effort to prevent conflict across Iraq's borders and in order to promote positive international and regional engagement, USIP has initiated high-level, non-official dialogue between foreign policy and national security figures from Iraq, its neighbors and the United States. The Institute’s "Iraq and its Neighbors" project has also convened a group of leading specialists on the geopolitics of the region to assess the interests and influence of the countries surrounding Iraq and to explain the impact of these transformed relationships on U.S. -

Corresponding Author: 2*[email protected] Hassan Alaji, Bahman Hajipour, Shahriar Azizi. Challenges of Nation Re-branding Syria: Perspectives of Syrian Tourism Suppliers -- Palarch’s Journal of Archaeology of Egypt/Egyptology 18(8), 3248-3264. ISSN 1567-214x Keywords: Branding, Nation Rebranding, Tourism, Conflict, Syria. Abstract This paper examined the marketing strategies and directions of the Syrian Ministry of Tourism (MOT) since the start of the war in 2011, and also to identify the challenges and opportunities associated with implementing the nation branding strategy and changing its prolonged negative image related with the war, and terrorism at the tourism level. By using the case study approach, and conducting eight semi-structured interviews with officials and workers in the public-private tourism sector, a SWOT analysis was performed. The paper concluded that MOT has adopted the strategic approach in setting plans to resume the tourism sector on the strategic term, targeting the markets of friendly countries, and activating cultural, religious and domestic tourism. It was also found adopting a collective amnesia approach, as it did not refer to the products of war in its marketing programmes. -
