Hope After Tyranny: How Syrians Are Restoring Freedom from the Ground Up
Atlas Network with Michael Carnuccio - A podcast by Atlas Network
Categories:
What does rebuilding a country from tyranny really look like? In this episode of Atlas Network, podcast host Michael Carnuccio sits down with three powerful voices in the worldwide freedom movement: Dr. Mazen Derawan (Founder, Free Syria Center), Dr. Nouh El Harmouzi (Director, Arab Center for Research), and Dr. Tom G. Palmer (Atlas Network EVP).
Together, they unpack the real story behind Syria’s historic revolution — from the collapse of one of the world’s most brutal regimes to the fragile but inspiring emergence of a free-market, pluralistic vision for the future. Dr. Derawan, now advising Syria’s transitional government, shares firsthand what’s changing on the ground, how the Free Syria Center is shaping policy reform, and why this moment matters for the region — and the world.
Whether you care about liberty, human dignity, free markets, or global peace, this is a conversation you don’t want to miss.
Featuring:
Dr. Mazen Derawan, Founder, Free Syria Center
Dr. Nouh El Harmouzi, Arab Center for Research
