Hardcover. Zustand: Good. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: Good. First Printing. xii, [2], 336, [2] pages. Tabular Data. Notes. Index. DJ edges somewhat worn and small tears, sticker residue to front DJ flap, small stains to fore-edge. This work describes Iran under the Shah, traces the Ayatollah Khomeini's rise to power, and specul…ates on the future of U.S.-Iran relations. Dr. Stempel was a career Foreign Service Officer. His 23 year career included oversees postings focused on political and economic affairs in Guinea, Burundi, Zambia, and Iran. In Washington D.C. he was assigned to both the State and Defense Departments, in addition to serving as the Director of the State's Operation Center. Dr. Stempel retired after 26 years in the University of Kentucky's Patterson School, serving as the first Associate Director from 1988-1993, Director from 1993-2003, and then finally as a Senior Professor. He became Professor Emeritus in 2013. The author was the Deputy Chief of the Political Section, U.S. Embassy, Tehran, from 1975 to 1979. Derived from a Kirkus review: Stempel was in the political section of the US Teheran embassy from 1975 until July 1979, when he left Iran and so avoided being taken prisoner the following November. As Deputy Director of his section, he was responsible for gathering information. An introductory chapter flashes back to the overthrow of the Qajar dynasty by Reza Shah, and then Stempel focuses on the political and economic programs of his son. Emphasizing the dislocations caused by rapid economic development--the late Shah's "White Revolution"--Stempel observes that this upheaval does not fully explain the Shah's troubles, since similar programs have not toppled regimes elsewhere. Instead, Stempel emphasizes the style of personal rule adopted by the Shah, which tied both political and military leaders personally to him without any intervening structures like political parties. The one party that did exist--except for a short-lived official opposition party created by the Shah himself--had no chance to develop its own political mechanisms, since the Shah moved politicians around at whim. When the Shah then became indecisive--partly on account of his cancer and the medication he took for it--there was no rational organization capable of dealing with a crisis by its own lights. So much embassy effort went into economic affairs, Stempel notes, that political information-gathering and analysis suffered. Written while Bani Sadr was still president, Stempel's prognosis that the fractured political identities and loyalties within Iran today will probably lead to another "dashing figure on horseback," still stands. For an introduction to the Iranian revolution, Stempel's has vignettes on the US role that make for intriguing reading.
