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.UtOrBLWUtOrBLWBOOK9910965645803321Fortresses of the intellect4337535UNINA05057nam 22006734a 450 991095901500332120251117115720.01-280-34884-4978661034884810.1596/0-8213-4884-1(CKB)111098478189136(SSID)ssj0000087650(PQKBManifestationID)11130595(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000087650(PQKBWorkID)10053688(PQKB)11295700(MiAaPQ)EBC3050815(Au-PeEL)EBL3050815(CaPaEBR)ebr10115229(CaONFJC)MIL34884(OCoLC)228124713(The World Bank)00069316(US-djbf)12257139(BIP)46189541(BIP)7046981(EXLCZ)9911109847818913620001214d2001 uf 0engurcn|||||||||txtrdacontentcrdamediacrrdacarrierIntegration of transport and trade facilitation selected regional case studies /T.R.
