The Iranian Revolution at Forty
How Iran—and the world around it—have changed in the four decades since a revolutionary theocracy took powerIran's 1979 revolution is one of the most important events of the late twentieth century.

U.S.‐Iranian Confrontation: Domestic, Regional and Global Implications
The State Department Designates Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guards Corps as a Foreign Terrorist Organization

Sanctions and the Iranian Nuclear Deal: Silver Bullet or Blunt Object? Suzanne Maloney (bio) since the seizure of the american embassy in tehran more than 36 years ago, economic sanctions have been at the heart of Washington's strategy for dealing with Iran.

Economic sanctions have often been considered an important tool for disciplining adversaries and compelling them to offer important concessions. History, however, suggests otherwise. Economic penalties rarely cause states to abandon important national assets. After decades of struggling under punitive financial measures, Iran has persisted with its objectionable policies ranging from terrorism to proliferation of weapons of mass destruction. All …

The Gulf's Renewed Oil Wealth: Getting it Right This Time
The dramatic escalation in the price of oil over the past seven years has allowed the Middle East and the Gulf states in particular to reap an incredible windfall. Early indications suggest that the region may be optimising these rewards with greater prudence than during past oil booms, by reducing debt, increasing savings and launching meaningful economic reforms. Still, it is hardly certain that mounting revenues will enable the region to succe…
