Soldiers Shahs and Subalterns in Iran by S. Cronin, Hardcover | Indigo Chapters

Against conventional views of the unchallenged hegemony of a modernizing monarchy, this book argues that power was continuously contested in Riza Shah's Iran. Cronin excavates the successive challenges to Riza Shah's regime posed by a range of subaltern social groups and seeks to restore to these groups a sense of their historical agency. | Soldiers Shahs and Subalterns in Iran by S.
