    HIST 6824 Modern Iran Rome 459 Professor M.A. Atkin Wednesdays: 5:10-7:00 Office: Phillips 340 Spring 2014 Phone: 994-6426 e-mail: [email protected] Office hours: M & W: 1:30-3:00 and and by appointment Course Description: This seminar will take a thematic approach to the period from about the year 1800 (when a state with roughly the dimensions of modern Iran emerged) to 1989 (the end of the Khomeini era.) Recurrent themes of the course include problems of state building in the context of domestic weaknesses and external pressure, ideas about reform and modernization, the impact of reform by command from above, the role of religion in politics, and major upheavals, such as the Constitutional Revolution of 1906, the oil nationalization crisis of 1951-1953, and the Islamic Revolution of 1978-1979. The specific topics and readings are listed below. The seminar meetings are structured on the basis of reading and discussion for each week’s topic. Further information on the format is in the section “Course Readings” below. In addition to the weekly reading and discussion, students are expected to write a term paper which draws on their readings for the course. The term papers are due on Monday, April 28, 2014.) Details of the paper will be provided separately. A student who already has a strong background in the history of modern Iran may prefer to focus on a research paper. Anyone who is interested in that option should inform me of that at the end of the first meeting. Early in the semester, such students should consult with me to define a suitable research project.

UNIVERSIDADE FERNANDO PESSOA PORTO 2010 MARIA DE FÁTIMA AMARAL SIMÕES PEIXINHO O Curdistão no Iraque, ensaio de uma Nação. Contexto e Desafios. Dissertação apresentada à Universidade Fernando Pessoa como parte dos requisitos para a obtenção do grau de Mestre em Relações Internacionais com o Mundo Árabe e Islâmico, sob a orientação do Professor Ivo Sobral. Sumário O povo curdo representa a maior etnia do mundo sem pátria. Habitualmente recordados pelo imaginário colectivo no quadro do martírio que sofreram na Segunda Guerra do Golfo, mas também pelo activismo terrorista do PKK, importa perceber verdadeiramente quem são. Nesta dissertação abordamos de forma sumária a história deste povo, atravessando necessariamente a memória da área geográfica onde se incluem, o Médio Oriente, e as convulsões que marcaram os ciclos da sua evolução. O povo curdo e o seu território são indissociáveis, pelo que, até ao final da primeira Guerra Mundial, a abordagem é conjunta. Depois da definição artificial de fronteiras realizada pelos Tratados subsequentes aos Acordos de Paz, a dissertação concentra- se na experiência do Curdistão no Iraque. Com efeito, o território curdo no Iraque, a sua história, evolução e marcas da actualidade foram objecto de uma análise mais detalhada. Trata-se da experiência mais próxima da independência que os curdos vivenciaram, excluindo o caso excepcional da república de Mahabad. Com esta dissertação pretendemos desmontar a história de um povo praticamente desconhecido e tentar perceber até que ponto a experiência pioneira de um Estado quase independente poderia potenciar uma futura independência, ou experiências similares, nos vizinhos territórios curdos da Turquia e do Irão.

  • Continuity and Change: the History of Ancient Iran in Three Works by A.T. Olmstead, Roman Ghirshman and Richard N. Frye
    Iranica Antiqua, vol. XLII, 2007 doi: 10.2143/IA.42.0.2017883 CONTINUITY AND CHANGE: THE HISTORY OF ANCIENT IRAN IN THREE WORKS BY A.T. OLMSTEAD, ROMAN GHIRSHMAN AND RICHARD N. FRYE BY James D. CLARK Abstract: In this essay the author looks at History of the Persian Empire by A.T. Olmstead (1948), Iran: from the Earliest Times to the Islamic Conquests by Roman Ghirshman (1954), and Richard N. Frye’s (1963) The Heritage of Persia, three important and established histories that cover the ancient period of Iranian history. The three historians and their respective works are compared and some of the similarities as well as differences in how they have treated the period are pointed out. Keywords: Iran, Persian Empire, Achaemenians, Seleucids, Parthians, Sasanians Iran, like Mesopotamia — present-day Iraq — and Egypt, is one of the few lands of the Middle East whose history and culture extend from before the fall of the Sasanian dynasty and into the distant past. It is a history fraught with a complex of peoples, traditions, languages, migra- tions, and wars. It was characterized by a constant give and take between many cultures as they came into contact. It has, besides the cultural dimension, economic, social, and political aspects as well; those forces that are always working at any one time in history and acting to shape a society. But alongside that impressive array of forces that promote diversity in all societies runs a parallel current of continuity in the case of Iran. Although oftentimes possessing a subtlety difficult to pinpoint, there is an element that persists across time and that scholars continue to identify as “Persian” or “Iranian.” In one sense, it might even be said that that quality, manifested as it was in art, language, society, and poli- tics, is the continuity of a host of different aspects from various ancient civilizations that, in the long course of Persian existence, conquest, and hegemony, became parts of what have come to be termed collectively as “Iranian” civilization.

  • Iranian Economy in the Twentieth Century: a Global Perspective*
    Iranian Studies, volume xx, number x, April 2009 Iranian Economy in the Twentieth Century: A Global Perspective* Hadi Salehi Esfahani, University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign and M. Hashem Pesaran, University of Cambridge and USC August 28, 2008 Abstract This paper examines the transformation of the Iranian economy through the Twentieth Century within a global context. At the start of that century, the Iranian economy had long remained stagnant, poor, and largely agrarian, with a marginal role in the world economy. By the turn of 21st century, Iran had transformed into a complex and relatively large economy with important consequences for the economies of the Middle East and other parts of the world. While the initial conditions and the evolution of domestic institutions and resources played major roles in the pace and nature of that transformation, relations with the rest of the world had crucial influences as well. This paper focuses on the latter forces, while taking account of their interactions with domestic factors in shaping the particular form of economic development in Iran. We study the ways in which the development of the Iranian economy has been affected by international price movements and by the ebbs and flows of trade, investment, and economic growth in the rest of the world. In considering these effects, we also analyze the role of domestic political economy factors and policies in enhancing or hindering the ability of domestic producers to respond to external challenges and opportunities.

The Most Sovereign of Masters: The History of Opium in Modern Iran, 1850-1955 Abstract This study surveys a century of commercial opium production in Iran, from 1850 to 1955. From an insignificant contributor to the global opium market, Iran became within a few decades an important exporter, turning to the market between 5-10% of the entire global production of opium. Opium-poppy cultivation and opium production formed part of a larger process of transition within the agricultural sector to cash-crop production. Under the growing pressure of increasing imports of European manufactured goods and the collapse of the local manual industries, the production of cash-crops, and particularly opium, was intended to balance Iran's trade deficit. The combination of timely political changes in China, technological improvements in steamboat navigation and a high-quality product, enabled the successful integration of Iranian opium within the global opium market.

Alatas: A Khaldunian Perspective on the Dynamics of Asiatic Societies 29 A Khaldunian Perspective on the Dynamics of Asiatic Societies Syed Farid Alatas INTRODUCTION During the last twenty years or so, scholars in the Third World began to become critical of what came to be known as the captive mind.
