Bøger af Mangol Bayat

After the 1979 Islamic Revolution, constitutionalist leaders represented a diverse composite of beliefs, yet they all shared a similar vision of a new Iran, one that included far-reaching modernizing reforms. Mangol Bayat provides a much-needed detailed analysis of this historic episode.

This history examines the complex origins of religious dissent in 19th-century Qajar Iran (known to Westerners as Persia), and how it provided a mood and attitude which led to far-reaching political dissent, culminating in the establishment of a new government in 1906.
