|a "This collected volume is an attempt to create an overview of Iran’s main religious and ethno-religious minorities in their relationship to the dominant political discourse. The diversity of the topics, the international and academic backgrounds of the authors as well as their contemporary orientation distinguishes this volume as an original one." —Behrouz Alikhani, Senior Lecturer, WWU Münster, Institute of Sociology, Germany. This book explores the experiences of the ethnic and religious minorities of Iran, such as Jews, Yarsani, Christian, Sabean Mandaean, Bahai, Zoroastrian, Baluch, Kurd, and others and provides a historical overview of their position in society before and after the 1979 Islamic revolution and highlights their contribution to the country's history, diversity, and development. It also focuses on the historical, sociopolitical, and economic factors that affected the minorities' development during the last century.
