  • Iran and Iraq at War

    Shahram Chubin, Charles TrippBOOKIran and Iraq at War2019

    Elvis died on 16 August 1977. He was just 42 years of age and had been the first global superstar of the rock 'n' roll era: the King. An eager world followed his every appearance, flocked to his movies and bought his records in their millions. But what was he like as a colleague, as a friend, as a brother, as a lover?

  • Iran–Saudi Arabia Relations and Regional Order

    Shahram Chubin, Charles TrippBOOKIran-Saudi Arabia Relations and…2014

    Both countries will have strong incentives to test the artificial balance established by the US and from which they are excluded. Each state, in the face of continued embargoes, may find the lure of weapons of mass destruction correspondingly increased

  • Is Iran a Military Threat

    Shahram ChubinARTICLESurvival2014Cited by: 2

    Tehran's military capabilities do not match its ambitions for recognition and status. It iscautious, defensive and prudent in resorting to force, due as much to experience as torealism about its own limits

    David E Thaler, Alireza Nader et al.DATASETPsycEXTRA Dataset2010

    The Islamic Republic of Iran is now perceived by many as a rising power in the Middle East and a long-term challenge to U.S. regional interests. The fall of Iran's archenemy, Saddam Hussein, has enabled it to expand its influence in Iraq and beyond. Its nuclear program continues relatively unabated, with the Islamic Republic defying international condemnation and sanction to pursue an ostensibly civilian nuclear program -- a program that could, t…

  • Mullahs, Guards, and Bonyads: An Exploration of Iranian Leadership Dynamics

    David E Thaler, David Thaler et al.BOOKMullahs, Guards, and Bonyads2010

    The U.S. ability to “read” the Iranian regime and formulate appropriate policies has been weakened by lack of access to the country and by the opacity of decisionmaking in Tehran. To improve understanding of Iran's political system, the authors describe Iranian strategic culture; investigate Iran's informal networks, formal government institutions, and personalities; assess the impact of elite behavior on Iranian policy; and summarize key trends

    Shahram Chubin, Robert S LitwakARTICLEThe Washington Quarterly2003Cited by: 5References: 1

    External pressure is a necessary but insufficient strategy to ensure that Iran is complying with its nonproliferation commitments. A complementary effort is needed to influence nuclear politics within Iran by generating a real debate among the Iranian public

  • The eye of the transitional storm

    Shahram ChubinARTICLEThe Washington Quarterly2001

    Given the times, Bill Clinton, the non‐foreign policy president, has done pretty well. He leaves behind no stunning victories or defeats, but his presidency has been a holding pattern, almost a calming influence, for an era of multiple transitions

  • Engaging Iran: A US strategy

    Shahram Chubin, S Chubin S Chubin et al.ARTICLESurvival1998

    There is today a strong case for engaging Iran. Changes in Iran have made such a process feasible but its success will be constrained by political divisions among Iran's leadership. US policy will have to take these divisions into account in not asking for more than President Khatami can deliver, or setting its objectives beyond what is realistically obtainable. While an improved atmosphere will not substitute for dealing with the hard issues of …

  • Iran

    Shahram ChubinCHAPTERThe Cold War and the Middle East1997

    Iran was located at the very core of the Cold War in the Middle East. In 1945 it had to choose whether to seek the protection of a friendly distant state or risk annexation by a hostile neighbour. It chose an informal alignment with the West. This ensured its security against external aggression; but the corollary of this was the strengthening of the state under the Shah. Western support aided the centralization of power and reinforced the author…

    Shahram ChubinCHAPTERIran-Iraq War1989

    Among conflicts in the Third World, the Iran-Iraq War is unusual in several respects. Most commonly cited are its costs in human life and economic resources and its inordinate length. Less often remarked was the genre of conflict that it represented, being untypical of the prevailing pattern in the non-industrial areas, where the tendency has been for internal or civil wars. In contrast, this was a relatively rare case of (pure) interstate confli…
