Hosted by The Johns Hopkins School of Advanced International Studies: 2019 marks the 40th anniversary of the Iranian Revolution. The revolution's wide-reaching reverberations continue to this day. Rethinking Iran brings a fresh perspective to exploring the cultural, societal, and political consequences of the 1979 Revolution within Iran and across its borders. The initiative presents an in-depth view of modern Iranian culture and society by offering insights from artists, journalists, academics, and other subject-matter experts alongside hot-button geopolitical issues. The series is directed by Assistant Professor of Middle East Studies Narges Bajoghli.
