A new millet system?
• Then what about the rafidun and ghulat?
De-centralization
• A good idea, but to which degree?
• Sensible local arrangements• But addressing sects, not
minorities• Cannot follow sectarian
faultlines• Minorities can oppress
minorities.• A Pandora’s box, but it has
been opened?
An upper chamber in Parliament?
• Representatives from all sects, ethnicities.
• Accepting or rejecting the budget, other major decisions, but perhaps with a majority of 2/3
• Point: all groups will be represented, counter-acting majority rule in Parliament
• Risk: dead-lock.
Conclusion
• Although a certain cosmopolitan anti-Sectarianism has thrived under Baath and the Asads, the regime has exploited it rather than supported it
• Anti-sectarism is grounded to Syrian history and society.
• In the later phase of the uprising, Sectarianism has grown to become a major challenge in the future. Syria should find a way of making light institutional concessions to a sectarian reality whilst building on its proud tradition of anti-Sectarianism to overcome it.
