Following the 2009 Presidential Election, secular democratic
stability in the Islamic Republic of Iran appeared the most
improbable of possibilities. Yet it marked a critical point in
history that will forever be remembered as the beginning of the end
for theocratic tyranny in the state. Paradigm shifting demographics
and increasingly authoritarian leadership are aggravating a
revolutionary construct. If political and socio-economic challenges
remain unaddressed, conditions will trigger a confluence of events
unifying opposition against the ruling clerical establishment. This
research first examines select mechanisms of the Iranian political
system as it stood prior to the 2009 Presidential Election; chiefly
the most influential and powerful apparatuses of the state. Second,
if and how consequential effects of the election have altered
political activity of a society within the midst of a revolutionary
construct. Finally it will conclude identifying systemic trends
that may result in unanticipated structural reformation of
constitutional political power: a shift that will change the nature
of the Iranian political system and redefine a delicate balance of
power in the Persian Gulf.
