Armenian Christians in Iran

Beschreibung

Since the 1979 revolution, Iran has promoted a Shi'a Islamic identity, aimed at transcending ethnic and national boundaries. In this book, James Barry highlights the situation of the Armenian community within this Islamic Republic, and asks whether Iran has failed or succeeded in fostering a cohesive identity which includes non-Muslims.
