- How the Iranian Economy Actually Works
The article examines how Iran's economy evolved after the 1979 revolution, shifting from promises of wealth redistribution and independence to a system described as a 'mafia state' with entrenched cronyism. Yeganeh Torbati and Bozorgmehr Sharafedin's book 'Stolen Revolution' analyzes these changes, focusing on political economy dynamics, tech sector treatment, and the limited impact of recent peace talks.
