  • Triumphs and Tragedies of the Iranian Revolution
    The Road to Isolation: Triumphs and Tragedies of the Iranian Revolution Salma Schwartzman Senior Division Historical Paper Word Count: 2, 499 !1 Born of conflicting interests and influences — those ancient tensions deeply rooted in its own society — the Iranian revolution generated numerous and alternating cycles of triumph and tragedy, the one always inextricably resulting from and offsetting the other. This series of vast political shifts saw the nation shudder from a near feudal monarchy to a democratized state, before finally relapsing into an oppressive, religiously based conservatism. The Prelude: The White Revolution Dating from 1960 to 1963, the White Revolution was a period of time in Iran in which modernization, westernization, and industrialization were ambitiously promoted by the the country’s governing royalty: the Pahlavi regime. Yet although many of these changes brought material and social benefit, the country was not ready to embrace such a rapid transition from its traditional structure; thus the White Revolution sowed the seeds that would later blossom into the Iranian Revolution1. Under the reign of Reza Shah Pahlavi, the State of Iran underwent serious industrial expansion. After seizing almost complete political power for himself, the Shah set in motion the land reform law of 1962.2 This law forced landed minorities to surrender vast tracts of lands to the government so that it could be redistributed to small scale agriculturalists. The landowners who experienced losses were compensated through shares of state owned Iranian industries. Cultivators and laborers also received share holdings of Iranian industries and agricultural profits.3 This reform not only helped the agrarian community, but encouraged and supported 1 Britannica, The Editors of Encyclopaedia.

A dix-huit ans, lorsqu'il entre à l'Université;, il a déjà une vie professionnelle et pédagogique remplie, il joue autant de la musique classique que d'autres styles (jazz, pop, blues), tout en donnant des cours aux enfants. Il s'adonne aussi à la composition. En 1965, il part pour New York pour y suivre des études strictement classiques à la célèbre Juilliard School of Music. Il y rencontre le compositeur italien Luciano BERIO et le chef d'orchestre Dennis RUSSELL DAVIES avec qui il forme le Juillard Ensemble. Grâce à cet ensemble, il rencontre aussi les compositeurs Henri POUSSEUR et Pierre BOULEZ et se met à jouer leurs musiques. Il entreprend plusieurs tournées en Europe et enregistre. Après cette immersion totale dans la musique contemporaine et ces études intenses au conservatoire Juilliard, il ressent le besoin d'une autre vision de la création musicale. C'est l'époque du free jazz et New York est sous le choc de mai '68. Il découvre l'improvisation, pas seulement dans le cadre du jazz ou du blues, mais la considère comme une manière de vivre la création musicale de l'intérieur. Il rencontre alors John CAGE, Frederic RZEWSKI, LaMonte YOUNG, Rhys CHATHAM, Anthony BRAXTON, Steve LACY et devient membre du Musica Eletronica Viva, un des groupes les plus influents de la musique improvisée de l'époque.
