The People Reloaded: The Green Movement and the Struggle for Iran's Future by Nader Hashemi and Danny Postel

Since June of 2009, the Islamic Republic of Iran has seen the most dramatic political upheaval in its three decades of rule. The so-called "Green Movement" is a series of mass protests that have grown into something much, much larger, perhaps even a social revolution. However, critical questions remain. What are the movement's aims: revolutionary, reformist, or something else all together? And does the movement have a chance of fundamentally changing Iranian politics?
