Abstract

The issue of democratization in Syria is indeed a worthy event to be discussed. Many changes occurred in various aspects of life when the Syrian conflict emerged in early 2011. The chaos that occurred gives impact to the development of economic, social, politics, and even the field of IT and mass media. This paper will try to explain specifically about the post-democratization media in Syria. The subjects that the authors examine are not only the conventional media, such as TV, radio, and newspaper, but also roles of social media as a medium to spread the information regarding the emerged issue in Syria. Qualitative descriptive method will be used to help the authors analyse the case. The results of this study are expected to provide an overview and illustration about what happen to the development of mass media in Syria in times of crisis.
