Economists on Iran

by Dollars and Sense

The Union for Radical Political Economics (URPE) has recently updated its Web page on Iran. The site features URPE members whose expertise is the political economy of Iran, many of whom come from Iran.

Among the highlights: Reza Ghorashi, Tom O'Donnell, Ervand Abrahamian and Manijeh Saba presented a panel at the 2009 Left Forum (on April 18 in New York City) called "Obama and Iran: A New Beginning?" Audio recordings of the talks are posted on the URPE Web page.

You can also listen to panels from previous years for background information on Iranian internal politics, the roles of oil and nuclear power, regional power relations, Iran and Israel, etc.
