Hizballah in Syria: The Limits of the Democracy/Moderation Paradigm

Year 2014, Volume: 5 Issue: 2, 81 - 114, 01.01.2014

Abstract

Hizballah is a popular case study for those seeking to understand democratic transformations in radical groups, although there has never been consensus on whether Hizballah has genuinely transformed. Although Hizballah appeared committed to parliamentary politics between 1992 and 2008, the group’s behaviour in the lead up to the 2008 Doha Agreement and its intervention in Syria in 2013 suggest that democracy has failed to fully ‘tame’ Hizballah. This article applies Schwedler’s model of democratic moderation to Hizballah, showing that there was evidence of a number of limitations in Hizballah’s transition long before 2008

Suriye’de Hizbullah: Demokrasinin Sınırları/Ilımlılaştırma Paradigma

Year 2014, Volume: 5 Issue: 2, 81 - 114, 01.01.2014

Abstract

Hizbullah’ın gerçekten dönüştüğü konusunda bir fikir birliği olmamasına rağmen, radikal gruplarda demokratik dönüşümleri anlamak isteyenler için Hizbullah sıklıkla başvurulan bir vaka çalışmasıdır. Hizbullah 1992 ve 2008 yılları arasında parlamenter siyasete bağlı bir görüntü sergilemesine rağmen, 2008 Doha Anlaşması’na giden süreçte ve 2013’de Suriye müdahalesindeki davranışı göstermektedir ki demokrasi Hizbullah’ı uysallaştırmakta başarısız olmuştur. Bu makale Schwedler’in demokratik ılımlılık modelini Hizbullah’a uygular ve 2008’den çok önce Hizbullah’ın dönüşümünün sınırlarını ortaya koyan bir dizi kanıt olduğunu gösterir
