Iran Unveiled

How the Revolutionary Guards Is Transforming Iran from Theocracy into Military Dictatorship

By: Ali Alfoneh

Iran is currently experiencing the most important change in its history since the revolution of 1979 and the establishment of the Islamic Republic: The regime in Tehran, traditionally ruled by the Shia clergy, is transforming into a military dictatorship dominated by the officers of the Islamic Revolutionary Guards Corps (IRGC; Sepah-e Pasdaran-e Enqelab-e Eslami). This transformation is changing not only the economy and society in Iran, but also the Islamic Republic’s relations with the United States and its allies.

Iran’s Influence in Afghanistan

Implications for the U.S. Drawdown

By: Alireza Nader,Ali G. Scotten,Ahmad Idrees Rahmani,Robert Stewart,Leila Mahnad

This study explores Iranian influence in Afghanistan and the implications for the United States after most U.S. forces depart Afghanistan in 2016. Iran has substantial economic, political, cultural, and religious leverage in Afghanistan. Although Iran will attempt to shape a post-2014 Afghanistan, Iran and the United States share core interests: to prevent the country from again becoming dominated by the Taliban and a safe haven for al Qaeda.

Iran Unveiled

How the Revolutionary Guards is Turning Theocracy Into Military Dictatorship

By: Ali Alfoneh

The regime in Tehran, traditionally ruled by the Shia clergy, is transforming into a military dictatorship dominated by the officers of the Islamic Revolutionary Guards Corps (IRGC). The rise of the IRGC is bound to challenge the interests of the United States in the Middle East and beyond. The author uses rarely studied sources from the Persian-language press to reveal how the IRGC officers have risen to power in Iran and the impact of the Islamic Republic's transformation into a military dictatorship. He highlights how Iran's recent attacks against American diplomats and support for armed insurgents in Iraq and Afghanistan indicate the IRGC's increasing adventurism and risk taking.
