Captive Society
This is a pioneering study of Iran's Basij militia. Basij means “mobilization,” and the full name of the organization is the “Organization for the Mobilization of the Oppressed.” It has millions of members and has played a major role in Iran's stormy postrevolutionary history, but it has not received much academic attention and, for that reason alone, Golkar's book is welcome.

Two middle eastern inflations
This paper examines the political economy of inflation control in Turkey between 1980 and 2001 and Israel between 1980 and 1985. These two economies, the most industrialized and open in the Middle East, suffered inflation that at times exceeded 100 per cent a year in the period after 1980. In Israel inflation rose from 20 to 30 per cent in the mid-1970s to 100–120 per cent in the early 1980s and to 500 per cent at an annual rate in the first half…
