Despite these measures, drug use was, and is still, commonplace. Based on her most recent fieldwork, Janne Bjerre Christensen explores the mounting problems of drug use in Iran, how treatment became legalized in 1998, how local NGOs offer methadone treatment in Tehran and face continuous political challenges in doing so, and how drug use is critically discussed in Iranian media and cinema. Drugs, Deviancy and Democracy in Iran is thus a unique account of Iran's recent social and political history, drawing important conclusions about the complexity of state power, and the growing impact of civil society, vital for all those interested in Iran's history, politics and society."--Bloomsbury publishing.IslamStudy and teachingIslamic civilizationStudy and teachingIslamBICIslamStudy and teaching.Islamic civilizationStudy and teaching.Islam.297.071Alí-de-Unzaga OmarDaftary FarhadInstitute of Ismaili Studies.UtOrBLWUtOrBLWBOOK9910467336803321Fortresses of the intellect2005939UNINA02491nam 2200601 450 991081554420332120200520144314.00-7618-6219-6(CKB)2670000000569169(EBL)1798290(SSID)ssj0001563150(PQKBManifestationID)16213077(PQKBTitleCode)TC0001563150(PQKBWorkID)14828906(PQKB)11053150(MiAaPQ)EBC1798290(Au-PeEL)EBL1798290(CaPaEBR)ebr11024184(CaONFJC)MIL647115(OCoLC)891729302(EXLCZ)99267000000056916920150309h20142014 uy 0engur|n|---|||||txtccrUniversities in decline from the great society to today: how universities have been replaced by the Washington Think Tanks as the generators of policy ideas /Howard J.
