The Iran-Iraq War (1980-1988) is a cornerstone of the Islamic
Republic of Iran's existence. It entrenched the newly established
regime and provided the means for its consolidation of power in the
country following the 1979 Revolution. Officially recognized as the
"War of Sacred Defense", the Iranian government has been careful to
control public discourse and cultural representation concerning the
war since the since wartime. Nearly 30 years since the war's end,
however, debates around the war and its aftermath are still very
much alive in Iran today. This volume uncovers what some of those
debates mean, nearly 30 years since the war's end. The chapters in
this volume take a fresh look at the far-reaching legacies of the
Iran-Iraq War in Iran today - a war that dominated the first decade
of the Islamic Republic's existence. The chapters examine the
political, social and cultural ramifications of the war and the
wide range of debates that surround it. The chapters in this book
were originally published in Middle East Critique.
