Iranian politics has been marked by sharp ideological divisions and
infighting. These divides, kept largely out of public view until
the 1990s, came to greater light with the contested 2009
presidential elections. To explain the diverse and complex forces
that led to this event and that animate Iran s current fractured
society and polity, author Shireen T. Hunter looks beyond the
battle between the forces of reform and reaction, democracy and
dictatorship, and considers the historic forces that created the
conditions faced by Iran since the revolution. Iran Divided: The
Historic Roots of Iranian Debates on Identity, Culture, and
Governance in the 21st Century explains historical and political
factors and their relevance to Iran today, shedding light on the
forces behind Iranian politics and society. This book discusses:

versus Islam; .secularism versus religion; .constitutionalism
versus Islamic government; .fundamental issues of identity,
culture, and governance; .aging of the revolutionary coalition;
.development of new elites; .experiences of the Islamic republic;
.and new international conditions moving the country beyond old
divides and ideological rifts toward a new national consensus. A

student seeking to understand the Islamic Republic of Iran and its
standing in the world today."
