The Turban for the Crown: The Islamic Revolution in Iran
Finally, while Meisami addresses the question of the homoerotic nature of the vast majority of ghazals, she has decided, only for convenience (p. 254), to use the female pronoun in her discussion of the ghazal whenever referring to the beloved. Since the beloved in the vast majority of Persian ghazals is either he or He, and she regularly employs the masculine pronoun in her translations (p. 263), what purpose is served by the choice of she/her h…
Land Reform Versus Agricultural Reform: Turkish Miracle or Catastrophe Delayed
The change from an agriculturally based economy to one based primarily on industrial and services sectors requires a complex transformation in technology of productions, physical and human capital structure, social and political institutions, and cultural attitudes. Although broad similarities exist, no two countries have traced an identical path. One major economic and ideological concern in such a transformation is the fate of private property …
Population and Food Dynamics: A Caloric Measurement in Egypt
Post-World War II studies of Egypt's economy devote considerable attention to her population growth and agricultural development. Such attention is necessary in that Egypt, (though) so limited in its habitable land, has experienced a quadrupling of population during the present century; and, as its most important sector is still agricultural, more than half of that population is concentrated in rural areas. Therefore, studies have focused on the …
Dar al-Islam: The Evolution of Muslim Territoriality and Its Implications for Conflict Resolution in the Middle East
Conflict and conflagration are not unique to the Middle East. Rare is the region where, at some point in history, disparate peoples have not clashed and killed. Attempts to assert primacy, when unsuccessful, have often led to periods of retrenching. When successful, postures of victory are precarious, subject to the transient recuperation of the vanquished
Political Economy of Growth and Destruction: A Statistical Interpretation of the Iranian Case
The completion of this article preceded the triumph of the Revolution in Iran. During the previous regime, critical studies on the subject of political economy of Iran, either went unpublished or were sufficiently diluted to cause no alarm and thus no harm. We write from personal experience and from knowledge of the experiences of other colleagues. This study is not free from the effects of such constrictions since most available official data ge…

Economic Determinants of Political Unrest: An Econometric Approach
Some degree of political unrest and thus potential for violence exists in all societies at all times. In recent years, the causes of political unrest are attributed to one or more sociopsychological traits or geopolitical factors. Economic explanations are absent or lack modern quantitative approach. This study is an attempt to test some of the old and new theories of political unrest, and to extend, modify, and synthetize others in a unified the…
Military Expenditure in Iran: A Forgotten Question
A high official of the Iranian government was recently visiting the United States when he offered to meet students and scholars of Iranian affairs in order to discuss questions of mutual interest related to Iran. It was hoped that such a meeting in an academic environment would bring about a greater understanding of the current government policies and thus bridge the generation and information gap existing at present. Among the questions he was a…
