Empirically rich and theoretically informed, this book is an
innovative analysis of political decentralization under the Islamic
Republic of Iran. Drawing upon Kian Tajbakhsh's twenty years of
experience working with and researching local government in Iran,
it uses original data and insights to explain how local government
operates in towns and cities as a form of electoral
authoritarianism. With a combination of historical, political, and
financial field research, it explores the multifaceted dimensions
of local power and how various ideologically opposed actors shaped
local government as an integral component of authoritarian state
building. Ultimately, this book demonstrates how local government
serves to undermine democratization and consolidate the Islamist
regime. As Iran's cities and towns grow and develop, their
significance will only increase, and this study is vital to
understanding their politics, administration and influence.
