“…Many slogans had linked their acts of protest to territorial solidarities, such as governorates, cities and regions: ‘What injustice, ya Aleppo, what an injustice! Your sister Hums is crying!’ (Burgat et al, 2013: 186–9). Similarly, the newspapers' regional or territorial identities shed light on the Uprising's unravelling.…”

Scholarship on the Syrian conflict has too often reduced the analysis of political behaviour to the causal variable of sectarianism and therefore overlooked the role of other identities sustaining mobilization since 2011. Using the case of the revolutionary newspaper Souriatna, this article argues that a civic re‐imagining of the nation that was neither ethnic nor sectarian informed the identity claims of anti‐regime protestors throughout the conflict and well beyond the peaceful protests of 2011. Civic nationalism, a re‐imagining of the nation as a self‐determined community of equal citizens was generated through print newspaper practices and the iteration of symbols, specifically the map of Syria in its current territorial boundaries and the Independence flag. This re‐imagined nationalism from below challenged both state discourse of sectarian fragmentation since 2011 and Suriyya al‐Asad, the personification of power around the figure of the state leader.

“…En effet, la répression brutale des manifestants dans la petite ville de Daraa en mars 2011 produit une dynamique de solidarité dans les régions de Homs, dans la banlieue de Damas (Douma), voire ailleurs, contrairement aux effets escomptés par le régime. Les chants et slogans en témoignent : « Qu'ils me brûlent par le feu, qu'ils me torturent toute la journée, qu'ils me déchirent le corps à la scie, qu'ils me poussent au suicide, je dirai un seul mot pour faire bref, que je prononcerai avec honneur et fierté, que je répéterai encore et encore avec obstination : [Je suis] Daraaoui quoi qu'il arrive 48 ! », « De Qameshli au Hauran, le peuple syrien ne s'humilie pas 49 », ou encore « Homs, solidaire de Daraa » et « Briser le blocus de Daraa 50 ».…”
