This paper explores the many developments the Syrian revolution has gone through since it eruption in March 2011. Externally it has become an axis for complex international conflicts while it became internally a domain open to intermediary conflicts and numerous actors. The paper sees the disunity of the Syrian revolutionary groups and the absence of unified frames of reference on military, political, and even symbolic levels as the most prominent structural crisis afflicting the Syrian revolution that undermined the effectiveness of its forces, as well as the actors’ ability to propose an alternative way-out. The paper see all these shortfalls a result to predicaments engulfing the elite’s institutions, as well as the actors inside the field.
