Editorial Reviews

Product Description
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.

1.0 out of 5 stars In the name of Iran, March 20, 2007
This book contains several essays of Iranian thinkers. This book is prasing the Islamic Republic of Iran as a modern state which is altering itself in order to suite itself to changing world. However, and infact, Dr. Ramin JAHNABEGLOO is before the IRI court for espionage charges.

Title of this book should be delusional thinkers of Iran.
