Summary The thematic focus of this book is the tragic yet inevitable effects of subaltern nationalism. The book covers the systemic challenges that all modern Iranian regimes have faced in establishing a sovereign, developed, democratic, and constitutional nation-state. The book would certainly benefit both scholars and students of international relations, comparative politics, developmental studies, Iranian studies, and those interested in a deeper understanding of the ongoing Middle Eastern security and foreign policy issues.
