In this episode, Belle interviews Dr. Pouya Alimagham, a Lecturer at MIT, and a Faculty Affiliate at the Harvard Kennedy School’s Middle East Initiative, about his recent book, Contesting the Iranian Revolution: The Green Uprisings (Cambridge University Press, 2020). This June marks 15 years since millions of Iranians took to the street in protest after Mahmoud Ahmedinejad was announced as the winner of the 2009 presidential elections. Now known as the 2009 Green Movement, the mass protests spread under the slogan “Where is my vote?” amid widespread suspicions that the election had been rigged. In Contesting the Iranian Revolution: The Green Uprisings (and our podcast episode), Alimagham addresses the continuities and shifts between the 1979 Iranian Revolution and the 2009 Green Movement.
