Iran on the Brink: Rising Workers and Threats of War Hardcover - 2007

by Andreas Malm; Shora Esmailian


From the publisher

This is the first book to explore the changes taking place in Iran from the ground up. While the world keeps its eyes riveted on Iran's nuclear program, the Islamic Republic has gone through a crisis of its own. This book shows how soaring unemployment and poverty have given way to social protest. A new labor movement has come to the fore. Although strikes are banned, workers are beginning to organize and are challenging the rule of the mullahs from within. The authors offer a unique portrait of the social upheaval, why it is happening, and where it may take the country. The book also deals with the international issues facing Iran, in particular the nuclear question, Iran's oil reserves, and the serious threat of invasion. It is a sobering account of the realities of life in Iran and the threat that war poses to the democratic aspirations of the Iranian people.
