Women's Labour in the Islamic Republic of Iran
This article examines the changes in the female class structure of the urban work force in post-revolutionary Iran by investigating the rate and pattern of the exclusion and the incorporation of women in the market between 1976 and 2006. We examine the gender marginalization thesis and test it empirically by focusing on the class nature of women's exclusion and incorporation into the labour force. We rely on decennial census data and present our …

The Rise and Fall of Iranian Classes in the Post-Revolutionary Decades
Islam and the Everyday World
"Public policy determines the scope, limits, and forms of social action. It is the government's means for encouraging, discouraging, or prohibiting certain acts or behaviors. In an Islamic state, the divine law (Shari'a) must be implemented as a means for the realization of the will of God on earth. The Shari'a is, therefore, the code of social conduct and the means of regulating social discourse as well as social change. Since definition of the …
Workers, Peasants, and Peddlers
In the post-revolutionary decades, the Iranian economy has undergone significant transitions. This paper is a study of the changes in the pattern of occupational and labor stratification in the Iranian economy in these years. This is a sufficiently long time, permitting the identification of decisive structural shifts in the Iranian economy and its labor force. For the purpose of this study, we propose two periods in the post-revolutionary years.…
Islamic Utopia in pre‐revolutionary Iran
The historical-Islamic background of the 1979 revolution in Iran and the populist character of the Islamic Republic have received careful scrutiny in the literature.' However, the impact of Navvab Safavi and the Fada'ian-e Eslam on shaping a distinctly populist-utopian dimension in the Islamic revivalist movement in the revolution has received little attention.2 Mojtaba Navvab Safavi (1924-55) was the founder of Fada'ian-e Eslam, a militant, fund…

Islamization of Economics in Iranian Universities
The revolutionary “spring of freedom” did not last long in the Iranian universities. The revolutionary movement had turned the universities into centers of political activity, where crowds gathered and rival political groups clashed. Control over the Tehran University soccer field for mass rallies became a sign of a political organization's power. On 11 February 1979, the first tank liberated from the Shah's army was driven to the campus of Tehra…

Property Rights in Contemporary Islamic Economic Thought
In the past four decades, a growing segment of the political movements in the Muslim countries of the Third World has turned to ideology as its guiding principle. [Sivan 1985, Enayat 1982, Rodinson 19781] The popular movements strive to establish an Islamic economic sys? tem. The characteristics of this ideal economic system are elaborated by Islamic economists in the vast and diverse literature known as Islamic
Winners and Losers of The Iranian Revolution
The income inequality gap in prerevolutionary Iran was no doubt a contributing factor to the mass mobilization of Iranians in the 1979 Revolution. The Resolution of the Ashura March (December 11, 1978) demanded the establishment of “social justice, the right of workers and peasants to the full benefit from the product of their labor” and an end to “any form of discrimination, exploitation, profiteering and economic domination which may result in …
Foreign Exchange Gap, Structural Constraints, and the Political Economy of Exchange Rate Determination in Iran
Foreign currency transactions have come under stringent controls in postrevolutionary Iran. This is a relapse into the prevailing conditions in the years preceding 1974, before the increase in oil revenues eliminated the foreign currency gap. Initially, the Islamic Republic of Iran (IRI) imposed exchange controls to stop the postrevolutionary capital flight. Soon, however, exchange controls became an integral policy instrument of the government f…
