Aljumhuriya Collective

AlJumhuriya.net was founded in March 2012 by a group of Syrian writers and academics, both inside and outside the country, as a platform for Syrians to speak in their own voice about the myriad political, social, cultural, and other questions thrown up by the revolution and ensuing conflict in their country. Through their distinct blend of commentaries, reportage, long-form essays, interviews, podcasts, translations, and short fiction, they seek to illuminate in full and vivid color the Syrian picture too often viewed in disparate versions of monochrome. While aspiring fervently to a democratic and just future for Syria, they retain full independence from any political faction, party, government, or corporation.
