《經濟學人》雜誌將2025年評為“年度國家”,以表彰敘利亞在2024年底阿薩德政權被推翻後取得的顯著政治和社會進步。新領導層帶來了相對和平,部分難民得以返回家園,社會也朝著正常化邁進,儘管挑戰依然存在。這項評選凸顯了敘利亞在艾哈邁德·沙拉總統的領導下,從多年殘酷衝突走向充滿希望(儘管仍然脆弱)的未來的巨大轉變。
為何選擇敘利亞?
獨裁統治的終結:巴沙爾·阿薩德政權於2024年12月垮台,結束了長達十餘年的內戰。
狀況改善:由沙拉領導的新過渡政府在安全、人權和減少恐懼方面取得了顯著進展,約有300萬敘利亞人返回家園。
關注進步:《經濟學人》的年度評選旨在表彰那些展現出最積極變化的國家,而敘利亞從飽受戰爭蹂躪的國家向更加和平的國家的轉變被認為是最為顯著的。
背景:該決定於2025年12月18日刊登,此前對敘利亞的新局勢進行了為期一年的評估。
儘管人們對潛在的混亂或強硬統治深感擔憂,但事實證明,新的敘利亞比預期的更穩定和充滿希望。
For 2025,
The Economist named Syria its "Country of the Year," recognizing the significant political and social improvements after the overthrow of the Assad regime in late 2024, with new leadership bringing relative peace, the return of some refugees, and a move towards normalcy, despite lingering challenges. The selection highlights the massive transformation from years of brutal conflict to a more hopeful, albeit fragile, future under President Ahmad al-Sharaa. Why Syria?
- End of Dictatorship: Bashar al-Assad's regime collapsed in December 2024, ending over a decade of civil war.
- Improved Conditions: The new transitional government, led by al-Sharaa, brought significant progress in security, human rights, and reduced fear, with some 3 million Syrians returning home.
- Focus on Improvement: The Economist's annual choice rewards countries showing the most positive change, and Syria's shift from war-torn to a more peaceful state was deemed the most dramatic.
Context:
- The decision was published in the December 18, 2025, issue, following a year of assessing the new reality in Syria.
- While concerns about potential chaos or hardline rule were high, the new Syria proved more stable and hopeful than anticipated.
每年 12 月,《經濟學人》都會回顧過去 12 個月並選出年度最佳國家。勝利者並不是最有德行、最富有或最成功的地方。相反,我們選擇一個能夠改善民主和個人權利或提高人民變得更加繁榮的潛力的國家。我們的記者之間的爭論非常激烈。先前的獲獎者包括哥倫比亞、馬拉威和烏克蘭。 2023 年,我們將獎項授予希臘,表彰其擺脫長期金融危機並重新選出實行中間派政策的政府。我們的候選名單中有五個國家。其中兩人反對治理不善和民主倒退。另一個公司在經濟上克服困難,增加了財富。其中兩次發生了推翻獨裁者的革命。哪個國家名列前茅?
A special edition on our country of the year
Each December The Economist looks back on the preceding 12 months and selects a country of the year. The winner is not the most virtuous, richest or successful place. Instead we choose one that has improved democracy and individual rights or has raised the potential for its people to become more prosperous. The debate among our correspondents is vigorous. Previous winners include Colombia, Malawi and Ukraine. In 2023 we gave the prize to Greece for dragging itself out of a long financial crisis and re-electing a government with centrist policies. Our shortlist has five countries on it. Two took a stand against misgovernance and democratic backsliding. Another boosted its fortunes economically against the odds. And two had revolutions that deposed despots. Which country came top?
