The Fight for Iran : Opposition Politics, Protest, and the Struggle for the Soul of a Nation Hardback
by Ilan Berman
Part of the American Foreign Policy Council series
Hardback
Description
Today, more than four decades after its founding, the Islamic Republic of Iran is arguably at the weakest point in its history.
At home, deteriorating domestic conditions, a profoundly disaffected population, and an increasingly unpopular official ideology have helped to galvanize opposition to the country's ruling clerical regime.
Meanwhile, mounting economic and political pressure from the United States have taken aim at the country's economy and its malign regional behavior.
The end result of this confluence of forces could very well be a new political upheaval within the country.
The Fight for Iran is an in-depth look at that potential for change, as well as at the beliefs, ideas and values of the different factions that now exist within the Iranian opposition.
It represents a chronicle of what, forty-one years after the Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini's Islamic Revolution, has become a profound political struggle for the soul of one of the Middle East's most important nations.
