About this book
'Iran's strategy is to eat away at American power, while legitimising its own role as a regional power with nuclear ambitions.' —Kim Ghattas
In this issue of The Jewish Quarterly, renowned writer and analyst Kim Ghattas examines the motivations behind Iran's changing role and influence in the Middle East. Delving into the regime's secretive strategy and tactics, Ghattas investigates Tehran's interventions in the affairs of countries across the region and its relationship with the West, and explores Iran's future role and posture in the Middle East.
Also in this issue, Arie M. Dubnov shares keen insights into the intriguing life and ideas of modern Israel's first native Hebrew speaker, and William F.S. Miles brings to life the history and colour of a tiny Jewish community in a French outpost in the Caribbean Sea. Mark Glanville locates Ukraine's post–Great War pogroms in their newly relevant historical context, Sarah Abrevaya Stein takes a fresh look at the extraordinary global success of the Sassoon dynasty and Ryan Ruby critiques Hannah Arendt's Rahel Varnhagen.
