The war on Syria has severely damaged the stock of physical and human capital. This study evaluates the implications of the war on economic growth in Syria by comparing the factors affecting economic growth before and during the crisis, perhaps the m
ost prominent of which are the lack of funding, the high unemployment rate, and the decrease in the exchange rate of the Syrian Pound, as an indicator of high prices and economic inflation, which resulted in the purchasing power of those with limited income, and aggravated the suffering of the population, the main source of power for the economy The Syrian people are the source of the wealth of Syrian society, and the poverty circle has expanded to include 83% of them in 2014 Syria was classified as a fast-growing country before the crisis, but its growth rate declined during the crisis to reach (- 22.5) in 2013. The study concluded that relying on loans as a source of financing is inappropriate and does not match the sustainable debt limit and hinders economic growth in the medium and long term. This research discusses the ability of the Syrian pound to regain its purchasing power, and reached several conclusions, the most prominent of which is that the Syrian pound can regain its purchasing power and its position as soon as the production wheel in the commodity sector begins, and inflation can decline. For this purpose, this research paper proposes adopting a development strategy that takes into account the current reality, the declared international war on Syria, and the brutal siege imposed on its people, taking advantage of the experiences of other countries that have gone through more difficult circumstances than the ones that Syria is going through, and those countries were able to achieve stable and Sustainable economic development.
Information and communication technology (ICT), Gross capital formation,
Openness, and Inflation are frequently well-thought-out as important drivers of economic
growth for all countries, and especially for developing countries. This study aims to
examine the effect of these factors no economic growth in Syria covering the period from
1995-2012, with main interest of the impact of ICT. To this end, the study utilized annual
time series data set over the period 1990 to 2010. Econometric techniques include testing
the stationary of data by applying (ADF) test and applying Autoregressive Distributed Lag
(ARDL) method of estimation. Moreover, Short run and long run estimates were found .
The paper confirms a negative and statistically significant relationship between the
economic growth and technology index in the short run, but the relationship becomes
positive and statistically significant in the long run. This paper confirms a negative and
statistically significant relationship between the economic growth and GFC in the short
run, but the relationship becomes positive and statistically significant in the long run,
where the relationship between openness and economic growth is positive both in the short
and long run, whereas the relationship between the inflation rate and economic growth is
negative both in the short and long run.
This article aims to revision of literature concerned with the study of
relationship between financial system development and the
economic growth. To confirm the nature of this relationship and its
direction and also defining how the financial sys
tem may affect
economy, because many theoretical and applied studies treated this
questions due to its huge importance and the importance of decision
based on its results. So to what extent these studies could answer.
this study aimed to use derived indicators for development of financial system by using
factor analysis to fully understand the level of financial development in Syria and it's
relationship with the economic growth.
This study investigates the relationship between the financial
development and the economic growth in Syria during the period
(1980-2010). The financial development was measured by the
credit granted to the private sector and the broad money M2
whereas the economic growth was measured by the real gross
domestic product per capita.
Investments are generally real and actual swatch of overall community development،
development that generate power from factors and of itself and of itself، the importance of
investment flows in difficult circumstances with which that State as it i
s now in Syria، and
especially that she was subjected to significant losses as a result of this unjust war waged
since March 15، 2011، and therefore reflected the priority of economic policy generally
improving economic indicators of economic growth rate and GDP and improving The
balance of trade and increase cash reserves and others، Syrian investment body policy
particularly stimulating domestic and foreign investment and attracted to Syria، and that is
the essence and substance of our research.

Foreign direct investment FDI has been started to play a major role in supporting the
growth of the economies of developing countries since the eighties of the last century,
taking advantage of the rapid spread of information and communication tech
nology ICT
and the trend towards a market economy in most developing countries and trade
liberalization in them. These countries began to depend more on foreign direct investment
because of the great benefits that derive from it in terms of capital, employment and
increase in exports, or in terms of obtaining the modern technology which is necessary to
achieve the economic development.
In Syria, foreign direct investment flows started to increase since 2003 as a result of
the new directions of the Syrian government to open up to domestic and foreign private
sector, and reliance on the market economy.
The objective of this research is to shed light on the reality of foreign direct
investment in Syria, and to clarify the impact of this investment on economic growth
during the period 2000-2010. It has reached to find out that this effect was weak.
The purpose of this research is to study the determinants of the real exchange rate in
Syria during the period 1990 to 2011. We employed Vector Auto Regression (VAR) model
to study the long-term relationship between the real exchange rate and the f
actors affecting
it. Also we applied the Granger causality test to investigate the direction of the relationship
between these variables. In addition, the Impulse Response Functions (IRF) and the
Variance Decomposition to determine thecontribution of thesedeterminantsin the
interpretation ofthe variance oftherealexchangerateof the Syrian pound. Eight possible
determinants have been included in the empirical model: Foreign direct
investment,realGDPgrowthrate,money supply, government consumption, trade
openness,real interest rate, terms of trade, political stability indictor.
The variables that have been found to have a long run relationship with the real
exchange rate are: theforeign direct investment, real GDP growth rate and trade
openness.EspeciallyForeign direct investment and Real GDP growth rate which have the
greatest effect on the real exchange rate, while the trade openness had the least effect on
the real exchange rate in Syria.Leavingthe other determinants with insignificant effect on
real exchange rate in Syria.
Many studies showed that interventionist policies play negative role on the economical growth process. Others, based on realistic statistics related to some countries, showed that some of this politics can play positive role on the economical growth
of these countries. In this course, this study aimed to stand on the role that the interventional polices may play on the economical growth using real mathematical model that is The Overlapping Generations Model where a study of probable effect of these policies on individual saving level took place. Results show that interventionist policies affect negatively on investment level accordingly capital stock accumulation on the long term. But in the countries with high saving level, the effect of such policies is positive through its effect on the efficiency of resources allocation of investment.
The interest rate is one of the most important way by the
monetary police for achieving its economical goal and raising
growth rate, it effects on banking activity by accepting deposits
and giving loans, which mean that harmonic between the
struc
ture of banking deposits and loans give a needed support to
investment, production and income to reach the stability
economic.
To show the relationship between interest and growth rates, we
have to aware the various effectives of inflation and population
rates on real growth, so we study it by using statistical system
SPSS.
