Modern Iran since 1797 offers a comprehensive analysis of
political, social and economic developments in Iran since the end
of the eighteenth century. Spanning two centuries, the book
provides historical context for Iran's international relationships
and its internal struggle to reconcile itself and its traditions
with the modern world. The book presents an overview of this
crucial period in Iran's history, its emergence from the political
turmoil of the eighteenth century through to its initial encounter
with the industrial powers of Europe and its attempts to navigate
the turbulent waters of European imperialism. It assesses the
impact of European ideas on the triumph and tragedy of the
Constitutional Revolution, which established the political template
for the country going forward and against which all other political
developments have been measured. This new edition has been updated
to incorporate new scholarship and research to make a rounded
assessment of recent developments and bring the text fully up to
date. A substantive new prequel has also been added, covering the
long nineteenth century from 1797 through to 1921, including a
fuller and more detailed treatment both of the Constitutional
Revolution and the events and ideology that underpinned it. Written
in a clear, engaging style and highlighting Iran as a state and
society grappling with the realities of the modern age, Modern Iran
since 1797 remains the perfect guide for all those studying the
history of modern Iran.
