Domesticity and consumer culture in Iran examines the interplay between native aspirations, foreign influences, gender roles, consumer culture and women's education as they intersect with taste, fashion, domestic architecture and interior design in modern Iran. Throughout, ideas of consumer culture and gender are at its core, but other important socio-political subjects are examined in order to view Iran's modernization through the prism of its people's private lives. Presenting a new perspective on the 1979 Iranian revolution, re-read vis--vis the opinions of Shiite religious scholars, the Left, and the revolutionary elites, this book demonstrates how Iranians have contested the public-private dichotomy as manifested in the Islamic Republic's texts, images, and actual physical spaces"--$cProvided by publisher. 410 0$aIranian studies (London, England) ;$v16. 606 $aCulture$xEconomic aspects$zIran 606 $aArchitecture and society$zIran 606 $aInterior decoration$xHuman factors$zIran 607 $aIran$xEconomic conditions 607 $aIran$xSocial conditions 615 0$aCulture$xEconomic aspects 615 0$aArchitecture and society 615 0$aInterior decoration$xHuman factors 676 $a306.30955 686 $aHIS026000$aSOC002010$aSOC053000$2bisacsh 700 $aKarimi$b Z.
