In this new perspective, Iran's quest for nuclear power-in the
context of the global energy challenge and the Cold War-era nuclear
arms race-takes on new dimension. This study goes beyond current
affairs and analyzes interactions between the complex evolution of
U.S. policy toward Iran and events in modern Iranian history that
shape the determinants of Tehran's foreign policy. Today, the
shockwaves of the cataclysm that became known as the Islamic
Revolution have irrevocably transcended Iran's frontiers. In the
aftermath of the revolution, Afghanistan and Iraq were invaded, and
the Republicans, who had gained power thanks to the hostage crisis,
now had to shy away in light of the Iran-Contra scandal. The
revolution was a byproduct of the great powers' array of
geostrategic moves following World War II. This book explores the
order that underlies Iran's chaotic dynamics that have potential to
bring about unintended results. The best example of this is
President Carter's human rights policy, which, unexpectedly, via
strange attractor dynamics, led to the fall of the Shah that marked
the end of the U.S. twin-pillar policy in the Persian Gulf.
