Iran’s Quiet Revolution Book by Ali Mirsepassi

Açıklama

Iran’s Quiet Revolution by Ali Mirsepassi is a thoughtful and analytical study of social, intellectual, and political transformation in contemporary Iran. Rather than focusing on dramatic upheavals or overt political conflict, Mirsepassi examines the gradual and less visible changes taking place within Iranian society, particularly among intellectuals, reformist thinkers, and urban middle classes. The book explores how debates around modernity, democracy, religion, and national identity have evolved in the post-revolutionary period. Drawing on sociological theory and close readings of Iranian intellectual discourse, Mirsepassi argues that these internal shifts represent a “quiet revolution” that challenges rigid ideological frameworks without relying on mass protest or violence. By situating Iran within broader discussions of political sociology and social theory, the book offers readers a nuanced understanding of change, continuity, and reform in modern Iranian society.
