During the Iranian Revolution of 1978/9, the influence of public
intellectuals was widespread. Many espoused a vision of Iran freed
from the influences of 'Westtoxification', inspired by Heideggerian
concepts of anti-Western nativism. By following the intellectual
journey of the Iranian philosopher Ahmad Fardid, Ali Mirsepassi
offers in this book an account of the rise of political Islam in
modern Iran. Through his controversial persona and numerous public
and private appearances before, during and particularly after the
Revolution, Fardid popularised an Islamist vision militantly
hostile to the modern world that remains a fundamental part of the
political philosophy of the Islamic Republic to this day. By also
bringing elements of Fardid's post-revolutionary thought, as well
as a critical analysis of Foucault's writings on 'the politics of
spirituality', Mirsepassi offers an essential read for all those
studying the evolution of political thought and philosophy in
modern Iran and beyond.
