The Collapse. 330 $aThe Islamic Revolution in 1979 transformed Iranian society and reshaped the political landscape of the Middle East. Four decades later, Darioush Bayandor draws upon heretofore untapped archival evidence to reexamine the complex domestic and international dynamics that led to the Revolution. Beginning with the socioeconomic transformation of the 1960s, this book follows the Shah?s rule through the 1970s, tracing the emergence of opposition movements, the Shah?s blunders and miscalculations, the influence of the post-Vietnam zeitgeist and the role of the Carter administration. The Shah, the Islamic Revolution and the United States offers new revelations about how Iran was thrown into chaos and an ailing ruler lost control, with consequences that still reverberate today. 606 $aMiddle East?History 606 $aHistory, Modern 606 $aWorld politics 606 $aImperialism 606 $aHistory of the Middle East$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/715060 606 $aModern History$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/713000 606 $aPolitical History$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/911080 606 $aImperialism and Colonialism$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/722000 607 $aIran$xHistory$yRevolution, 1979 607 $aIran$xHistory$yMohammad Reza Pahlavi, 1941-1979 607 $aUnited States$xForeign relations$zIran 607 $aIran$xForeign relations$zUnited States 615 0$aMiddle East?History. 615 0$aHistory, Modern. 615 0$aWorld politics. 615 0$aImperialism. 615 14$aHistory of the Middle East. 615 24$aModern History. 615 24$aPolitical History. 615 24$aImperialism and Colonialism. 676 $a955.054 700 $aBayandor$b Darioush$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$01224981 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910483862403321 996 $aThe Shah, the Islamic Revolution and the United States$92844287 997 $aUNINA
