ISBN: 9798257629921 - The Iranian Revolution: Origins, Dynamics, and Consequences (5 results)

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. In 1979, one of the most deeply entrenched monarchies in the world collapsed under the weight of a popular revolution led by Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini. What began as scattered protests for freedom rapidly transformed into a sweeping Islamic upheaval that stunned the international community and reshaped the Middle East forever.Written in 1985 while the Iran-Iraq War was still raging, this incisive analysis by Brigadier (Retired) Mahmood Shah examines the historical, religious, social, and political roots of the Iranian Revolution. Drawing on his deep understanding of regional dynamics, the author explores the revolution's causes, its dramatic unfolding, and its early consolidation of power under the unique system of Velayat-e Faqih. With remarkable foresight, he assesses the staying power of the new regime, its potential to export revolution, and its complex relationship with both superpowers and neighbouring states.More than four decades later, this book remains a valuable historical document. Enhanced with a 2026 Author's Update, it offers readers a rare Pakistani perspective on one of the most consequential events of the twentieth century - a revolution whose impact continues to influence global politics, energy security, and the future of the Middle East today.
