New Century Publications Iran and Post-9/11 World Order by Anwar Alam
Recent years have witnessed an intensification of international debate on the Iranian nuclear program. This book enriches the understanding of the nuclear program that Iran claims is meant for peaceful purposes, though Western powers remain suspicious of the Iranian intent and appear to be determined to block its nuclear ambition. The book situates the discourse and international debates concerning the nature of Iran's nuclear program within the emerging contour of a post 9/11 world order. Within this framework, it captures the orientations, engagements, and responses of the major world powers, as well as the regional powers, towards Iran.
