Sh'ma: A Journal of Jewish Responsibility -- Iran, Israel, and U.S. Foreign Policy (Iran, Israel and U.S. Foreign Policy)

Sh'ma: A Journal of Jewish Responsibility -- Iran, Israel, and U.S. Foreign Policy (Iran, Israel and U.S. Foreign Policy)

Kenneth Stein
3/5 ( ratings)
Iran is much in the news these days as the West — and Israel — figure out how to address a potentially nuclear Iran, strategically and diplomatically. On what basis are Iran’s policies forged — how pragmatic, or ideological, or for that matter, how foreboding, are they? Is the Iranian leadership heterogeneous or monolithic, and to what extent will its ideology trump its pragmatism? This Sh’ma features a roundtable with historian Kenneth Stein and a number of Middle East foreign policy experts in which they explore the delicate nature of Middle East geopolitics. It also includes essays on the Shi’a Islam practiced in Iran, Persian Jewish life in Los Angeles, the history and culture of Persian Jews, and some discussion of the condition of Iranian Jewish life today. While some argue that Jews continue to fare well in Iran, others insist that they enjoy at best second-class citizenship and are muzzled by a repressive regime.
