270 pages cm "Iranian foreign policy is aimed at achieving regional prominence and rebuffing U.S. efforts to limit Iran's influence. This book uses a 'strategic lens' to analyze Iran's current foreign policy. Ross Harrison argues that to understand Iranian behavior it is essential to look at it from the perspective of Iran's strategic interests, namely: its capabilities; how Iran interprets the region, the international community and itself; and the state's conception of time and territory in its foreign policy calculations. Iranian foreign policy is revealed to evince ideological strains but also realpolitik considerations based on current interpretations of the national interest"-- Ross Harrison.
