The book sheds light on both aspects, and identifies the need to democratize cultural heritage, by giving greater control to local communities. It also investigates the link between local hotbeds of conflict and violence in countries such as Syria and Iraq, as well as war economics, transnational criminal networks and the politics of deliberate destruction and theft of cultural heritage. Finally, the chapters analyze the impact of non-violent and violent non-state actors, fragile states, forced migration, environmental degradation, as well as how local and international institutions have reacted to the dramatic events which the region and its inhabitants have experienced in recent years. - Contents: Foreword (Ettore Greco and Nicolò Russo Perez) -- Introduction (Lorenzo Kamel) -- Chapter 1: The Steep Cost of Destabilizing Iraq and Syria (Elijah J.
