商品簡介
This volume examines how an Islamic dictatorship remains more than thirty years after the Islamic Republic's inception in Iran. It reviews the historical conditions that preceded the relationship between religion and the Shiite clergy and politics, and the relationship between religion and power in the transformation of Iranian society. To understand its slow progress towards democracy, it considers periods of constitutionalism, nationalism, modernization, communism, revolutionarism, ideological Islam, and Khomeinism in Iran's history during the 20th century and the political-religious debate in the country.
