An Islamic Response to Imperialism
Secularism and the State
Debates about the process of secularization have, centred on the work of a group of sociologists and historians, mostly British, who have put forth and debated what is known as ‘the secularization thesis’. Secularization is attributed almost exclusively to socio-economic change, without significant reference to the state, to ideas, or to political movements. The secularization thesis concentrates heavily on Great Britain, with some attention to w…
Women in Middle Eastern History
This history of Middle Eastern women is the first to survey gender relations in the Middle East from the earliest Islamic period to the present. Outstanding scholars analyze a rich array of sources ranging from histories, biographical dictionaries, law books, prescriptive treatises, and archival records, to the Traditions ( hadith ) of the Prophet and imaginative works like the Thousand and One Nights , to modern writings by Middle Eastern women …

Religion and Rebellion in Iran
An account of the events of the Iranian Tobacco protest of 1891 to 1892. This book examines the developments which led to this sudden outburst of opposition, traces the course of events in each city and notes the importance of the protest for the creation of the Iranian opposition movemnent.

Arab and Iranian Revolts 1979–2011
In the thirty-two years from 1979 to 2011 there have been numerous mass movements in Iran and several Arab countries that have overthrown or threatened rulers who seemed secure for several decades. By September 2011, the shah of Iran and the presidents of Tunisia, Egypt, and Libya had been overthrown; of those, only the anti-Qaddafi revolt had outside (NATO) help. Major popular movements had also threatened the rulers of Bahrain, Yemen, and Syria…

Comment on Cyrus Schayegh, “‘Seeing Like a State’
Cyrus Schayegh's “‘Seeing Like a State’: An Essay on the Historiography of Modern Iran” tries to show how historians of the Pahlavi era “have been gripped by the image of an omnipotent, completely autonomous state and how, each one . . . turned this image into what I call methodological statism” (p. 38). He discusses critically several works by historians and political scientists while mentioning more favorably a few works by anthropologists and …

Women in Iran
This debate on the role of women in the Islamic Republic of Iran was conducted early in 2001 as part of the Gulf/2000 project at Columbia University, directed by Gary Sick. Normally these online discussions are reserved for members, but this topic is of such general interest and aroused such intense emotions that two of the participants were asked to edit the discussion for a wider audience. The final version was edited by Nikki R. Keddie, profes…

Culture and politics in Iran since the 1979 revolution
Iranian culture and society were profoundly affected by the mass revolution of 1978–9. The victory of the revolution in February 1979 was possible as the result of an ultimately incompatible coalition of forces, ranging from various leftist and communist parties, through the liberal democrats of the National Front, the Islamic democrats of the Iran Liberation Movement, to the clerical and non-clerical followers of Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini. In …
The New Religious Politics and Women Worldwide
This article accounts for the approaches to women and gender in two types of New Religious Politics: those aimed at taking control of governments, and those targeted at nationalist and territorial goals. The former, which include many Islamist and Christian right movements, usually have conservative, scripturally oriented positions on women and the family. The latter, which include Hindu and other South Asian (Sikh, Buddhist) nationalists and suc…
Women in Iran since 1979
Selon l'A., l'Iran porte en lui des changements majeurs quant au statut des femmes. Bien que le Code civil dans ce pays favorise le sexe masculin en raison de la loi islamique, il est de plus en plus de femmes qui s'attachent a travailler dans la sphere politique. C'est pourquoi le contexte historique depuis le debut des annees 80 est mis en lumieres par rapport a l'activisme feminin
The Iranian revolution & the Islamic Republic
The past and present of women in the Muslim world.
Discussions of the past and present of women in the Muslim world are often charged with ideological commitments, even when their authors are attempting to be scientific and objective. The discussion of Muslim women may be particularly wrenching for a scholar who wishes to overcome widespread prejudices against Islam on the one hand, but not ignore the problems of Muslim women on the other. Roughly speaking, there tend to be three approaches to th…

The New Religious Politics
The reasons for the recent and simultaneous appearance, or rise in influence, in much of the world of “fundamentalist” or doctrinally and socially conservative religiopolitical mass movements have been analyzed for individual groups but rarely in a way that compares all the main religions and the regions in which they are strong. Most comparative volumes on fundamentalism are collections, with most authors discussing one area. Exceptions are Mark…

Is There A Middle East
The Middle East, as a geographical term, is generally used today to cover the area stretching from Morocco through Afghanistan, and is roughly equivalent to the area of the first wave of Muslim conquests plus Anatolia. It is a predominantly Muslim area with widespread semi-arid and desert conditions where agriculture is heavily dependent on irrigation and pastoral nomadism has been prevalent. With the twentieth-century rise of exclusive linguisti…

Problems in the Study of Middle Eastern Women
The study of Middle Eastern women, past and present, poses a number of methodological problems, some common to Third World studies and others peculiar to the Middle East. Recent research and editorial experience lead me to some conclusions regarding research on Middle Eastern women, both historical and contemporary. The most obvious problem is that, as compared either with many other areas of Middle Eastern history or with numerous geographical a…
Religion and Irreligion in Early Iranian Nationalism
The period 1905-1912 saw a number of nearly simultaneous revolutions or mass movements in Asian countries, which may be considered as the first wave of a revolutionary movement which continues to rock Asia. The Chinese overthrow of the Manchu dynasty, the Young Turk victory, and the Indian mass movement of 1905-1909 are probably the best-known in a series of events which also embraced smaller Asian countries and groups. The main reasons for their…
The Revolt of Islam, 1700 to 1993
Within the Muslim world, revolts with a religious aspect or ideology have had a long history. My current comparative research on this topic indicates that these revolts, common in the early centuries of Islam, became less frequent thereafter. These revolts may generally be characterized as either 'left' sectarian or 'orthodox' revivalist. The latter revived after circa 1700. It is part of my thesis to see three phases to these modern revivalist r…
The Iranian Power Structure and Social Change 1800–1969
Scholars have often been struck by the traditional and highly personal power relationships and manipulations that underlie the westernized and modernized forms of Iranian political machinery. Such analyses, stressing the continuity between traditional and modern Iran, are most enlightening, but they should not blind us to the very real changes in the power structure that have occurred in Iran between 1800 and the present. One can agree with analy…

Iran
In discussing the intellectual and religious history of the modern Muslim world, the attention of both Western and Middle Eastern scholars has hitherto focused on those who were, directly or indirectly, heavily influenced by Western thought and practices. For Egypt, the center of Arab intellectual life, we have studies of at-Tahtawi, Abduh, Rida, Mustafa Kamil, Lutfi as-Sayyid, and those close to them; for Turkey studies of the Young Ottomans, th…
Pan-Islam as Proto-Nationalism
The Iranian Village before and after land reform
Agriculture in Iran, as in most of the Middle East, has traditionally produced a surplus that has gone to support city dwellers with only the barest minimum of investment returned to the countryside. The 'city feudalism' of the Middle East and much of Asia, where the major landlords dwelt in, and often dominated, the cities, has been seen as one of the reasons why modern capitalism did not develop indigenously in these areas. In the discussion of…

Class Structure and Political Power in Iran Since 1796
The transformation in the structure of classes and of power in the past two centuries in Iran, as in many Third World countries, can be seen as: (1) a change from a relatively decentralized structure of power in which several different groups and localities shared power to one in which power is concentrated in the center and is backed by a modernized army and bureaucracy, (2) a change from primarily vertical divisions in society, in which the mos…
The Economic History of Iran, 1800–1914, and Its Political Impact an Overview
The economic history of Iran is a subject that has barely begun to receive the attention it deserves. Articles and parts of books on particular aspects of the subject appeared as early as the nineteenth century, but it is only since World War II that there have been extensive and serious studies in English, and these are still few and far between. Prof. Lambton's book Landlord and Peasant in Persia deserves to be singled out as a major pioneering…

Islam and Society in Minangkabau and in the Middle East
The Minangkabau people, who comprise the great majority of the inhabitants of the province of West Sumatra, have presented many puzzles for those who study their society. For a student of the Islamic world, perhaps the chief puzzle is: How can a people apparently justly reputed as the most pious Muslims in Indonesia, large numbers of whom pray with some regularity, build ever-growing numbers of mosques, and come closer to keeping the Ramadan fast…

Labor Problems of Pakistan
The industrialization of Pakistan, which has proceeded at a fairly rapid pace in the decade since partition, has engendered new and growing problems for industrial labor. These problems have until recently received scant attention from either the Government of Pakistan or from scholars. Domestic and international political matters and concern for rapid industrialization have hitherto occupied government officials more than a rigorous analysis of …

Western Rule Versus Western Values
Cross-cultural comparisons are more difficult in intellectual than in economic or social history both because patterns of belief vary even more than patterns of society and because there is no valid way to prove the relative importance of different ideas. In Asia, perhaps even more than elsewhere, the borders between intellectual history and political expediency are also often cloudy, so that it may be necessary to deal on the same terms with new…

Afghani in Afghanistan
After 27 years of a life which are almost completely without documentation, and which may have been deliberately obfuscated, one comes finally to a period where Jamal ad-Din al-Afghani's location and some of his activities can be continuously documented. Jamal ad-Din's personal notebooks put him first in Tehran for about six months beginning in December, 1865, then going for a brief stay in Mashhad, in Khorasan, and then to Afghanistan. He spends…

The following article comprises a preliminary version of three chapters of a manuscript on the background and development of the Iranian Constitutional Revolution of 1905-11. To give a very brief background to the events of 1900-05: in 1896 the powerful and long-lived Naser ed-Din Shah had been assassinated by a political radical, and he was succeeded by his weak and ailing son, Mozaffar ed-Din Shah (1896-1907). The new Shah, although of a more k…
