What is The British Role in Iranian Domestic Politics (1951-1953) (SpringerBriefs in Environment, Security, Development and Peace, 5) about?
How and why was Iran's democratically elected government overthrown in 1953? Most studies refer to a 'CIA-led' operation. Based on British and Iranian sources, Dr. Ebrahimi, Universiti Teknologi Malaysia, examines how British foreign and domestic agents interfered in Iran's international affairs between Iran's nationalisation of oil in 1951 and the overthrow of Prime Minister Mosaddeq in 1953. This study analyses how British agents used the Shah, the ancient Persian Durbar, Majlis deputies, Islamic clergy and Iranian army officers in the overthrow of the first democratically elected Prime Minister. The book highlights how Britain used the 'Communist threat' as a pretext to protect its oil interests and persuaded the Americans to execute the coup. This close interaction between British colonial interests, American Cold War goals and Iranian politics defeated the democratic aspirations of Iran's people.;1. British interest in Iran's oil: prelude to conflict -- 2. British retaliation after the nationalisation of Iran's oil -- 3. British interference in Iranian international politics -- 4. Diverse strategies solidify amid anti-Mosaddeq sentiment -- 5. Decisive crackdown and concluding
