The Iranian Revolution represented to intellectuals and
professionals the potential of spiritual values to triumph over the
great power of economic imperialism. Yet out of this revolution has
emerged an identity crisis that touches Islamic ideological heights
and reaches down to the very ground of Islamic practice. The
contributors to this collection, experts on Iranian cultural and
political history, analyze the 'fragmented self' of today's
Iranian, refracted through that country's institutions, market
forces, and modern thought. Each essay both deepens our
understanding of contemporary Iran and adds to the broader
discussion of the relationship between Islam and the West.
