Description
Evolving Iran presents an overview of how the politics and policy decisions in the Islamic Republic of Iran have developed since the 1979 revolution and how they are likely to evolve in the near future. The author assesses a political system that has prioritized self-interest and pragmatism over theology and religious values, while reinventing itself in the face of internal and international threats. The author also examines the prospects for democratization in Iran. This accessible overview of Iran's political system will appeal to undergraduates and the general public seeking to understand a country and regime that has mystified many outsiders for decades.
