    Evaluation of the Social Reasons for Defeating Political Parties in Iran Between the Years of 1942-1954

    EVALUATION OF THE SOCIAL REASONS FOR DEFEATING POLITICAL PARTIES IN IRAN BETWEEN THE YEARS OF 1942-1954 ABSTRACT OF THE THESIS SUBMITTED FOR THE AWARD OF THE DEGREE OF Mottov of $t|iIos;opIip IN SOCIOLOGY BY Naser Haghi Ghareh Darvishlou UNDER THE SUPERVISION OF Dr. Mohammad Akram DEPARTMENT OF SOCIOLOGY AND SOCIAL WORK ALIGARH MUSLIM UNIVERSITY ALIGARH (IIMOIA) 2012 -S5LM9 Political parties appeared on the scene when actions of an erstwhile political system attained a point of complexity that needed the introduction of a new political setup. Usually, political parties emerge when different classes of society become aware of their own interests, and the people of a country want the right to take part in political issues. The nineteenth century was an important phase in Iranian history, wherein political, social and economic corruption were the most obvious problem that Iranians faced. Tremendous increases of such problems have been the reason for the occurrence of all revolutions and reforms in Iran. With the allied occupation of Iran and the exile of Reza Shah, social chaos increased in the 1940s. Also, as a resuU of the Second World War, and because of the lack of a steady government, the country was led to anarchy. This problem offended Iranians more when they became aware of the degree and speed of development in the western countries. When Iranian intellectuals came into direct contact with western countries, they tried to regenerate the political structure of their own country to bring about political stability. After Reza Shah, especially between 1942 and 1954, there came a unique historical opportimity for Iranian elites to form a democratic political structure, whereas during the reign of Reza Shah, political parties and other active groups had been inactive.

    From Mossadegh to Ahmadinejad: the CIA and the Iranian Experiment

    From Mossadegh to Ahmadinejad: The CIA and the Iranian experiment By Thierry Meyssan Region: Middle East & North Africa Global Research, June 28, 2009 Theme: Intelligence Voltaire Network 28 June 2009 In-depth Report: IRAN: THE NEXT WAR? The news of alleged election fraud has spread through Tehran like wildfire, pitching ayatollah Rafsanjani’s supporters against ayatollah Khamenei’s in street confrontations. This chaotic situation is secretly stirred by the CIA which has been spreading confusion by flooding Iranians with contradicting SMS messages. Thierry Meyssan recounts this psychological warfare experiment. In March 2000, the Secretary of State Madeleine Albright admitted that the Eisenhower administration organized a regime change in 1953 in Iran and that this historical event explained the current hostility of Iranians towards the United States. Last week, during the speech he addressed to Muslims in Cairo, President Obama officially recognized that « in the midst of the cold war the United States played a role in the toppling of a democratically elected Iranian government » [1]. At the time, Iran was controlled by a puppet monarchy headed by the Shah Mohammad Reza Pahlavi. He had been placed on the throne by the British who forced his father, the pro-Nazi Cossack officer Reza Pahlavi to resign. However, the Shah had to deal with a nationalist Prime Minister, Mohammad Mossadegh. Mossadegh, with the help of ayatollah Abou al-Qassem Kachani, nationalized the oil resources [2]. Furious, the British persuaded the United States that the Iranian dissent needed to be stopped before the country became communist. The CIA then put together Operation Ajax to overthrow Mossadegh with the help of the Shah, and to replace him with Nazi general Fazlollah Zahedi who until then was detained by the British.

    In 1952, Britain and Iran Were in the Middle of an Oil Dispute. the Anglo-Iranian Oil Company

    In 1952, Britain and Iran were in the middle of an oil dispute. The Anglo-Iranian Oil Company (AIOC) was nationalized by the Iranian government under its fiery, bombastic premier, Mohammad Mossadeq (1880-1967).1 This was a tremendous loss for the British, the biggest stockholder in the company.2 As US Secretary of State Dean Acheson put it, “never had so few lost so much so stupidly in so short a time.”3 The oil nationalization came after the Iranian government had reopened negotiations of oil concessions with Britain. These negotiations were largely unsuccessful for Britain, due to Mossadeq’s aggressive negotiating style and his hatred of the British. In 1951, Mossadeq told US Special Envoy W. Averell Harriman, “You don’t know how crafty they [the British] are. You do not know how evil they are. You do not know how they sully everything they touch.”4 The British retaliated against oil nationalization by conducting threatening military maneuvers in the Persian Gulf and installing an embargo, which stopped the flow of Iranian oil to the rest of the world, mistakenly assuming that once Mossadeq saw the extent of Iranian dependence on the West, he would mute his support of oil nationalization. When he did not, one British lawmaker said, “really, it seemed hardly fair that dignified and correct Western statesmanship should be defeated by the antics of incomprehensible orientals.”5 The tension during this dispute was one of the many factors involved in the Iranian coup of 1953, in which the government of premier Mohammad Mossadeq was overthrown in an effort supported by the CIA (in its Operation Ajax) as well as the British international intelligence service, the MI6.
