ISBN: 9781477307519 / Angielski / Miękka / 388 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych.

ISBN: 9781780767284 / Angielski / Twarda / 280 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The 1979 Revolution in Iran caused the migration of millions of Iranians, many of whom wrote, and are still writing of, their experiences.

Sanaz Fotouhi here traces the origins of the emerging... The 1979 Revolution in Iran caused the migration of millions of Iranians, many of whom wrote, and are still writing of, their experiences.

ISBN: 9781784531348 / Angielski / Twarda / 296 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Iran s interaction with its neighbours is a topic of wide interest.

Modern Iranian historiography has been dominated by ideas of nationalism, modernization, religion, autocracy, revolution and war.

Iran Under Allied Occupation In World War II: The Bridge to Victory & A Land of Famine
ISBN: 9780761867388 / Angielski / Twarda / 748 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Occupied Iran in World War II became the most important supply route to Russia and source of fuel to the Allies. Having pledged to meet Iran's "minimum needs," the Allies commandeered the means of transport, seized food and fuel, severely restricted imports, forced Iran to print money, brought Polish refugees from Russia, and initially did little to contain the chaos and insecurity. The resulting famine and typhus epidemic of 1942-43 had claimed 4 million lives amounting to a quarter of the population. This was in addition to the 8-10 million lost in the Great Famine of 1917-19. Iran's 1944...

The Dissident Mullah: Ayatollah Montazeri and the Struggle for Reform in Revolutionary Iran
ISBN: 9781784531737 / Angielski / Twarda / 296 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The Iranian cleric Ayatollah Montazeri (1922-2009) played an integral role in the founding of the Islamic Republic in the wake of the Iranian Revolution of 1978/9. Yet at the time of his death, Montazeri was considered one of the Islamic Republic s fiercest critics. What made this man, who was once considered the leading advocate of the state doctrine of the Guardianship of the Jurist (velayat-e faqih) and the designated successor to the supreme leader Ayatollah Khomeini, change his views? How did his political theory incorporate issues such as civil rights, pluralism and popular...

In A History of Iran, acclaimed historian Michael Axworthy chronicles the rich history of this...

In Revolutionary Iran, Michael Axworthy guides us through recent Iranian history from shortly before the 1979 Islamic revolution through the summer of 2009, when Iranians poured into the streets of Tehran by the hundreds of thousands, demanding free, democratic government.
