In this episode, we look at why the current protests in Iran have mobilized so many. We also examine who is actually participating in these protests and the role students are playing as well.
Will these protests end up changing Iran? How will all of this end? Will the current regime fall?
These are some of the questions we will examine in this episode.
My guest today is Cyrus Schayegh, Professor of International History and Politics at the Geneva Graduate Institute.
Professor Schayegh, who has a PhD from Columbia University, joined the Institute in 2017. Before joining the Institute, he was Associate Professor at Princeton University and from 2005-2008, Assistant Professor at the American University of Beirut.
