McClure, Co-Chair Professor Mark Q. Sawyer, Co-Chair This dissertation situates the emergence of revolutionary resistance in Pahlavi Iran in parallel with the emergence of neoliberal political rationality in the Middle East. In the process, it theorizes neoliberalism anew. Through an engagement with archives of social practice in Iran and its diaspora between 1968 and 1979, neoliberalism is presented as a political rationality that involves rhetorical disavowal at root ¾ what I refer to as indeterminate governmentality. The study employs parallelism as a theoretical construct reflecting the logic of the revolutionary transformation and periodic shift at hand. The disavowals considered include renderings of a collective on individualist terms; formations of solidarity through empathy; and orientations toward order in the production of disorder. The archival material considered includes state documents; activist records, ephemera, and publications; theoretical texts; literature; popular cinema; periodicals; and ethnographic interviews.

  • Irans Yazdanicharati Grabs Olympic Gold at 74Kg As
    From: Tim Foley [email protected] Subject: Iran's Yazdanicharati Grabs Olympic Gold at 74kg as Khinchegashvili Upgrades at 57kg Date: August 19, 2016 at 4:50 PM To: [email protected] Iran's Yazdanicharati Grabs Olympic Gold at 74kg as Khinchegashvili Upgrades at 57kg by William May // Photo: Martin Gabor, United World Wrestling RIO DE JANEIRO (August 19) – Vladimir KHINCHEGASHVILI (GEO) held on for a 4-3 win at 57kg to upgrade to a gold medal at the Rio 2016 Olympic Games on Friday, while Hassan YAZDANICHARATI (IRI) grabbed his first gold medal in his Olympic Games debut. Khinchegashvili, a silver medalist four years ago in London, edged world champion at 61kg Haji ALIEV (AZE), 5-3, in the semifinals and held on for criteria decision win over Rei HIGUCHI (JPN) in the final to claim the gold medal at 57kg. Khinchegashvili spotted Higuchi a three-point lead on a “shot-clock” point in the first period and double-leg takedown in the second, then roared back with a chestlock and turn for two points and a “shot-clock” point for a 3-3 lead with the tie-break advantage. He then fought off the attempts of the 20-year-old challenger to score over the final 30 seconds to secure his upgrade to the gold medal. “This is the best feeling ever. My dream just came true,” Khinchegashvili told reporters. Vladimir KHINCHEGASHVILI (GEO) The Japanese corner, however, charged that Khinchegashvili was hanging on to Higuchi’s arm and preventing him from wrestling, but the challenge was rejected making the final score 4-3.
