Sommario/riassunto

Iran is one of the most important U.S. foreign policy concerns but is. extraordinarily difficult to engage. The authors assess current political,. ethnic, demographic, and economic trends and vulnerabilities in Iran, then. offer recommendations on U.S. policies that might foster the trends. beneficial to U.S. interests. However, if these trends do take root in Iran,. seeing them come to fruition will take time and, therefore, patience.
