  • 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.

  • THE HISTORICAL BACKGROUND of the TUDEH PARTY (MASS PARTY) of IRAN 1941-47 ABSTRACT This Article Examines the Tudeh Party, Which
    European Journal of Research and Reflection in Arts and Humanities Vol. 4 No. 2, 2016 ISSN 2056-5887 THE HISTORICAL BACKGROUND OF THE TUDEH PARTY (MASS PARTY) OF IRAN 1941-47 Dr. Najleh Khandagh Associate Professor Tarbiat Modarres University, Tehran IRAN ABSTRACT This Article examines the Tudeh Party, which was the most important at this time. The Tudeh Party of Iran is an Iranian communist party. Formed in 1941, which supported by Soviet Union . Russia's extensive geographical border with Iran and the influence of Russian communism on Iranian migrant workers gave a special significance to Soviet policy towards Iran. Soleiman Mohsen Iskandari was as the head of Tudeh Party. Tudeh Party had considerable influence in its early years and played an important role during Mohammad Mosaddeq's campaign to nationalize the Anglo-Iranian Oil Company and his term as prime minister. The crackdown that followed the 1953 coup against Mosaddeq is said to have "destroyed" the party, although it continued. In this article, I have tried to discuss and analyse the origins, platform, Organization , Influence and its Ultimate failure. Keywords: Tudeh Party – Origan – Platform – Organization – Influence – Soviet Union – Mrxism-Leninism. INTRODUCTION Within the Iranian political system during the period 1941-46 there existed a number of left- wing parties which exhibited the a varied range of Socialist leanings. The Tudeh Party ,as the largest, most influential and long-lived indeed of all the political parties ,was the sole true and full-fledged Communist grouping. Its proclaimed ideology was Marxist-Leninist ,not Socialist, and statements of this fact by the hostile central government were not refuted by the Tudeh Party.

  • And a Void in the Center. Afghanistan's Political Parties and Where They Come from (1902-2006)
    Islamists, Leftists – and a Void in the Center. Afghanistan's Political Parties and where they come from (1902-2006) Thomas Ruttig Preface With his new publication Thomas Ruttig presents us with a piece of work that is truly remarkable and unique in various regards. It is far more than a mere enumeration and characterization of political parties in Afghanistan, but rather an abstract of Afghan history with a particular focus on the development of organised political movements. The reader is taken on a journey starting out in the early days of the last century when small groups of independent political thinkers in Afghanistan, for the first time, set about agreeing on political aims and adopting a common political agenda. Thomas Ruttig, who has been working on Afghanistan for more than 25 years, analyses the stream of political groupings and parties, neatly intertwining it with political events and developments in the course of the decades. Using his knowledge of both Dari and Pashto, the author also introduces us to the emerging Afghan literature on this subject. Thus, he provides the reader with a deep and detailed insight into prevailing structures and determinants of political life in Afghanistan. Furthermore, his paper makes us aware that the history of an Afghanistan striving for political pluralism and democracy does certainly not begin only after the fall of the Taliban regime five years ago. This should broaden our knowledge of potential partners, who still are too often overlooked, in our common effort to build a peaceful Afghanistan. Thomas Ruttig’s profound knowledge of this country is necessary in order for the reader not to get lost amidst a political landscape that too often is confusing, for veteran and as well as new observers of Afghanistan.

  • Chain‖ of Populism from the Democrat Party to the Justice and Development Party in Turkey

Name, Last name: Esin Kıvrak Köroğlu Signature: iii ABSTRACT ―CHAIN‖ OF POPULISM FROM THE DEMOCRAT PARTY TO THE JUSTICE AND DEVELOPMENT PARTY IN TURKEY Kıvrak Köroğlu, Esin Ph.D., Department of Political Science and Public Administration Supervisor: Prof. Dr. AyĢe Ayata July 2016, 257 pages This dissertation analyses the relationship between populism and democracy in Turkey from the perspective of Laclau‘s theory on populism, focusing on the Democrat Party and the Justice and Development Party as illustrative cases. As the framework that Laclau developed to the end of studying the phenomenon of populism takes discourse analysis as its methodology, this dissertation addresses the discourse of democracy adopted by the Democrat Party and the Justice and Development Party. The cases of these two political parties fits Laclau‘s theoretical framework perfectly, which provides us with the opportunity to reach key findings on the relationship between populism and democracy in Turkey. Populism is believed to contribute to the further development of democracy at times, and is deemed to be a pathological constituent of democratic systems at others.This dissertation demonstrates that the cases of the Democrat Party and the Justice and Development Party give revealing clues regarding the nature of the relationship between populism and democracy as experienced in Turkey.

Box 1346 Ann Arbor, Ml 48106- 1346 Abstract The thesis is an investigation into the concept of modem political myth and its relationship to ideology. It argues that political myth can best be understood as the personalisation or familiarisation of ideology, by which ideological constructions are identified either with an individual, normally a political leader, or are expressed in mythic representations familiar within a given state and drawn from the traditional myths which permeate the political cultures of that state. The thesis argues that the personalisation and possible personification of ideology is one of the most obvious methods of political myth production and notes that the inherent contradictions and tensions resulting from an attempt to identify an individual with a principle almost always results in the construction of political myth.

Received: April 28, 2016 Accepted: May 25, 2016 Online Published: June 29, 2016 doi:10.5539/jpl.v9n5p132 URL: http://dx.doi.org/10.5539/jpl.v9n5p132 Abstract By the establishment of branches of <EJTEMAIYUNAMIYUN> and the activation of Armenian Democratic social groups, new political currents inspired from socialist thoughts entered the political scene of Iran. This current before the formation of second national counsel parliament was active under different groups and categories. The establishment of new political system after the victory of constitutionalists over minor tyranny and conquering Tehran some of the activists of these organizations were persuaded to engage at parliamentary activities. Change of the election law at the threshold of second parliament establishment which abolished the union representativeness principle facilitated the possibility of party activities in parliament therefore by the occurrence of the new conditions the activities of these groups were oriented to direct influence and attendance in the power structure by the party. With this goal in mind, some of the EJTEMAIYUN and a number of active Armenian social democrats of Tabriz with the assistance of Rasulzade, socialist <Hemmat organization>, founded <Democratic Party of Iran>.

  • The Women's Association of the Tudeh Party of Iran, 1944
    The Women’s Association of the Tudeh Party of Iran, 1944- 1948: The National and Transnational Struggles of a Left Feminist Group By Elaheh Habibi Submitted to Central European University Department of Gender Studies In partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of European Master in Women’s and Gender History CEU eTD Collection Supervisor: Professor Francisca de Haan Budapest, Hungary 2014 Abstract This thesis explores the domestic and international activities of the biggest Iranian left- feminist organization of the 1940s era: Tashkilat-e Zanan (Women’s Association). Based on archival materials from the National Library and Archive Organization of Iran, and the Archives of Islamic Republic of Iran in Tehran, periodical press, memoirs, and a congress report of the Women’s International Democratic Federation of which the WA was a member organization, this thesis tried to answer three questions: 1) What assumptions have shaped the leftist and feminist historiography of the Women’s Association? 2) What were the origins, agenda and strategy of the WA in its struggle for women’s rights? 3) How did Iranian women struggle for women’s rights through their fight against imperialism? Through a critical review of the Iranian leftist and women’s movement literature, I identified three assumptions stemming from the Cold War paradigm, which have led feminist historians to exclude the WA from the mainstream narratives. These assumptions were: 1) the independent women’s rights movement ended in 1932, when the last “independent” women’s organization, the Patriotic Women’s League (PWL), was banned by the Iranian government 2) The women’s organizations of the post-1940 era, were ‘subservient’ to the parties to which they were affiliated 3) Women’s rights issues became ‘secondary’ and ‘subordinate’ to the issues emphasized by the WA.
