Book excerpt: This is a neutral and up-to-date review of a variety of Iranian issues--from democracy and freedom and their application in Iran, to the issue of legitimacy and Iran's regime ideology, to economic preference and support for terrorism. Important questions are raised about whether Iran is supporting international terrorism and if so, to what extent is it doing so. Issues of international and ethnonationalist terrorism, politics, and economics are discussed and analyzed in the context of the Middle East, Latin America, and Latin Europe. Using socioeconomic and political theory and personal anecdotes, this book delivers a fascinating insight into present-day Iran.
