A leading expert on Iran's politics and history, Takeyh shows why this country has so often confounded American expectations and inspired a long series of misguided U.S. policies that continue to this day. And yet there is a hidden Iran beyond what we see on the news or hear about from American politicians, one in which political factions jockey for power and influence, politicians fall out of favor only to emerge a few years later, and the hard-liners, the pragmatists, and the reformers tend to counterbalance one another in the government."--Jacket. 7aIranxPolitics and governmenty1979-1997.2BUEsh 7aIranxPolitics and governmenty1997-2BUEsh 7aIranxForeign relationsy1979-1997.2BUEsh911017 7aIranxForeign relationsy1997-2BUEsh911018  bMASPPSScOctober2019423Contributor biographical informationuhttp://www.loc.gov/catdir/enhancements/fy0643/2006043981-b.html423Publisher descriptionuhttp://www.loc.gov/catdir/enhancements/fy0643/2006043981-d.html  2ddccBB  00102ddc40708BaccahaMAINbMAINc1STd2019-10-01ePurchaseg670.00l1m31o327.55 TAKp000048082r2025-07-15 00:00:00s2021-11-13v837.50w2019-10-01yBB
