Socialism's Ignored Success Ramin Mazaheri

"Iran and its unique socialist system is one of the greatest untold, even hidden, stories of our era. Ramin Mazaheri's book "Socialism's Ignored Success: Iranian Islamic Socialism" is a detailed and very serious compilation of the author's analyses, published by various progressive outlets in the West and now re-edited into this powerful and thought-provoking volume. Mazaheri is smashing to pieces our perceptions about Iran - one of the deepest, mostfascinating and original cultures on Earth. Many foreigners thought that Iran can be labelled and boxed into established categories. "No!" writes Mazaheri. Iran can be socialist and religious at the same time. And it can be, and in fact is, on the vanguard of many modern achievements of our humanity. It is a proud, brilliant country which should be listened to, and respected, by all of us." Andre Vltchek
