These essays examine Iran's place in the world--its relations and
cultural interactions with its immediate neighbors and with empires
and superpowers from the beginning of the Safavid period in 1501 to
the present day. The book provides important historical background
on recent political and social developments in Iran and on its
contemporary foreign relations. The topics explored include Iranian
influence abroad on political organization, religion, literature,
art, and diplomacy, as well as Iran's absorption of foreign
influences in these areas. A special focus is the prevailing
political culture of Iran throughout its early modern and
contemporary periods. The authors combine approaches from history,
political science, anthropology, international relations, and
culturalstudies. Some essays address Iran's interactions with
various Arab and Turkic ethnicities in the region stretching from
India to Egypt. Others examine its relations with the West during
the Qajar and Pahlavi eras, women's issues, culture inside Iran
during the Islamic Republic, and the Shi`ite theocracy of Iran as
compared with other Muslim states.
