Description

Explore a foundational work in Middle Eastern studies with Iranian History and Politics: The Dialectic of State and Society. Published as part of the Routledge/BIPS Persian Studies Series, this book provides the most detailed and comprehensive statement of Homa Katouzian's theory regarding the arbitrary state and society in Iran. This text applies these theories to both modern and traditional Iranian history and politics. Each chapter functions as an independent study of specific topics while contributing to a unified, cohesive argument. By providing close comparisons with European history, the author demonstrates the unique logic and sociology of Iranian history compared to its European counterparts. As the first modern theory of Iranian history, this volume is highly regarded by historians and social scientists. It serves as an essential resource for anyone looking to understand the deep-seated structures of Iranian political life and the specific historical developments that shape the nation.
