Why is it important?

The book explain the formation of modern Iran from a peripheral angle.

Perspectives

The book is regarded as a foundation for studies on Kurdish society in modern Iran. It explains the formation of modern Kurdish society as a result of the dual process of socioeconomic change and cultural homogenisation, leading to socioeconomic integration and political and cultural resistance. Looking into the dialectics of the process, the book opens new avenues for research rather than discovering new dead ends.
