Yet, one of the main and still largely neglected issues is the impact of the war on Syrian local economies, which have undergone fundamental changes since the outbreak of the conflict in 2011. The war and the current fragmentation of Syria has had profound and lasting implications for local communities and their socio-political relations, as well as for political economy and market. With the division of the country into a number of territories controlled by different political and military forces, local economies throughout Syria have developed in various and distinct ways with differences in their approach to trade relations, both among themselves and with neighboring countries. Alongside these developments, new patterns of economic activity have emerged and a new model of political economy has been shaped at the local level.
