Description

This comprehensive study examines the formation and development of anthropology in Iran throughout the twentieth century, tracing how culture and anthropological thought became central to Iran's socio-political discourse. The work analyses the appropriation and rejection of anthropology by both pre- and post-revolutionary regimes, identifying three distinct phases of Iranian anthropological development that correspond to major periods in Iran's social and political evolution. Beginning with the constitutional revolution and nationalism period, the book provides essential historical context for understanding how Western academic disciplines were integrated into Iranian intellectual life whilst being transformed through local political and social movements. Published by Routledge as part of the BIPS Persian Studies Series, this authoritative text fills a significant gap in English-language scholarship on Iran's intellectual history and offers scholars, students, and readers interested in Middle Eastern studies, anthropology, and Iranian history a detailed exploration of the relationship between academic disciplines and state power.

Key Features

The book traces Iranian anthropology across three main historical phases corresponding to nationalism, modernisation, and post-revolutionary periods in twentieth-century Iran.

This Routledge publication in the BIPS Persian Studies Series provides the first full-length academic study dedicated entirely to the history of anthropology in Iran.

The text examines how pre-revolutionary and post-revolutionary Iranian governments appropriated, modified, or rejected anthropological frameworks for political purposes.

The work explores the intersection of academic anthropology with broader socio-political discourses, revealing how Western disciplines were adapted within Iranian intellectual contexts.

Essential reading for scholars of Iranian history, Middle Eastern studies, anthropology, and the relationship between knowledge production and state ideology.
