On the international stage, the big issues remain Iran’s hostility towardsIsrael and the development of nuclear power in the face of US andinternational opposition. This is all in addition to the oil question and thestrategic interest of Russia, an issue which harks back to the 19th century butremains unresolved, as well as Iran’s concern about the proper stewardshipof the holy places of Mecca, Medina and Jerusalem.
This four-volume series brings together for the first time the best articles tobe written on the politics of modern Iran. In so doing, the set is aninvaluable source of reference for both scholars and students alike and willallow those developing an interest in Iran to quickly and easily access thehighest quality scholarship in the field.
Any understanding of modern Iran must be founded on a firm grasp of thehistorical context and some of the conceptual issues which underwritecontemporary Iranian politics. Volume I compiles the best articles analysingIran’s historical inheritance, including articles on religion and culture.Volume II includes articles on the political development of Iran from the20th century. The third volume brings together articles which lookspecifically at economic development and the contemporary politicaleconomy, and Volume IV brings together articles looking at Iran’s foreignrelations, including a special section on the Iran–Iraq War.
