		This was particularly true of the brief reign of Mozzafar-al-Din Shah (1896-1907), during whose rule the Constitutional Revolution began.

		The Iranian Revolution was the 1979 revolution that transformed Iran from a pro-western constitutional monarchy, under Shah Mohammad Reza Pahlavi, to an Islamic, populist theocratic republic under the rule of Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini.
		The leaders of Iraq, Kuwait, Saudi Arabia and the Persian Gulf States were also distressed by the Iranian revolution, as a Shi´a minority exists among their nations (except in Iraq and Bahrain where Shi´a are the majority) and it would stir a civil war.
		The one area where Iranian influence was extended was into the Lebanese Civil War, where Hezbollah became closely allied with the Iranians, fighting Sunni and Christian factions in Lebanon, and later the Israelis.

	The Iranian Constitutional Revolution, 1906-1911: Grassroots Democracy, Social Democracy, and the Origin of Feminism
		She relies on available historical documents, newspapers from the period, and accounts of participants and observers of this revolution, to show that, contrary to widespread belief, the revolution was not the product of an alliance between the secular intellectuals and liberal clerics only.
		The downside to this approach is that the usage of contemporary terms such as "democracy" and "feminism" for explaining events and individuals of a century ago runs the risk of reading too much into realities that may fall far short of their contemporary meanings.
		It is not far from the truth to speak of the political activities of the Iranian intellectuals and the activists for constitutionalism as a struggle for social justice, whatever social justice may have meant at that time.

		On the occasion of the centennial of the Iranian Constitutional Revolution, CSSAAME solicits historiographical essays that explore competing narratives of the Revolution and their divergent conceptions of the "nation," subjectivity, agency, the past, and the future.
		Particularly encouraged are critical inquiries that advance the historiography of the revolution and contribute to its analytical reconceptualization.
		We are especially interested in essays that link the social, cultural, and intellectual histories of the Revolution and those that explore the transformation of public and private spheres and their corresponding modes of collective and personal self-presentation.

		The most comprehensive treatment to date of the unique intellectual, political, and military role of an ethnic and religious minority-the Armenians-in the Iranian Constitutional Revolution (1905-1911), the bases of that participation, the causes of involvement, and the collaborative (and at times conflicting) relations among Armenian and Iranian constitutionalist elements.
		Berberian explores the ideological, political, and pragmatic motivations of Armenians, and examines the collaboration of Armenian and Iranian constitutionalists, drawing attention to the ideological and military contributions of Armenians to the revolution as well as the internal and external conflicts among Armenian activists and between Armenian and Iranian constitutionalist elements.
		In order to understand the political, intellectual, and military role of Armenians in the Iranian Constitutional Revolution it is necessary to have some knowledge of the nineteenth-century development and politicization of Armenians that took place in the Ottoman and Russian Empires.

		The Constitutional Revolution is widely considered to have been a defining political event.
