This episode is the first in a four-part series on the history of modern Iran, from 1906 through the present. This episode covers the period from 1906 until 1941, from the Constitutional Revolution that imposed constitutional limits on the Qajar dynasty through the 1921 coup that brought to power Reza Khan—who then in 1925 deposed the Qajars and became Reza Shah, the first shah of the Pahlavi dynasty. We end just before the 1941 occupation of Iran by longtime imperial powers, Britain and the Soviet Union, which forced Reza Shah out and replaced him with his son, Muhammad Reza Shah—which is where we will pick up in episode two.RIP Mike Davis.

Eskandar Abedi erzählt aus dem Leben eines blinden jungen Mannes, der im Iran zur Zeit der Revolution Ende der 70er-Jahre Musiker wird. Er schließt sich revolutionären Zellen an und geht schließlich ins Exil nach Deutschland, wo er seine Erinnerungen niederschreibt.Von Tanya Lieskewww.deutschlandfunk.de, BüchermarktDirekter Link zur Audiodatei

Eskandar Abadi ist Autor, Musiker und Journalist. Im jungen Erwachsenenalter floh der geburtsblinde gebürtige Iraner nach Deutschland, das er heute seine Heimat nennt. Dass Eskandar Abadi sich selbst als „sehenden Blinden“ bezeichnet, sagt schon viel über ihn aus. Florian Eib hat für SICHTBAR – Der Podcast mit ihm gesprochen. Aus aktuellem Anlass hat Eskandar aus seinem Buch „Aus dem Leben eines Blindgängers“ vorgelesen und auch musiziert.
In 1979, the Iranian Revolution upended the political order of the Middle East, sweeping from power the country's pro-American monarch, Mohammad Reza Pahlavi. The forces that coalesced to ouster the Shah from power were broad, including not only religious conservatives, but liberal, socialists, communists, and national minorities. However, it was the country's religious establishment, under the leadership of Ayatollah Khomeini, that were ultimately able to take power and establish an “Islamic Republic”. This week on This Is Revolution we take a deep divide into the Iranian Revolution and its aftermath. What were its origins? Which political forces contested for power during the revolution and how has that contest played out in the post-revolutionary era? And in what ways has Iran's continuous relationship with the United States affected political developments over the last four decades.

PAPOTAGE Avec Le Collectif Eskandar - Après La Grande Conjuration by ODIL Média
In this episode we talked with Dr. Eskandar Sadeghi-Boroujerdi, @EskandarSadeghi, who is an assistant professor in Comparative Political Theory at Goldsmith's University of London. He was previously a British Academy Postdoctoral Research Fellow at the University of Oxford (2016-2019), where he also obtained his doctorate (2010-2014). Eskandar has published widely on modern Iranian and Shi'i Islamic political thought and is a series editor of Radical Histories of the Middle East (Oneworld). We discussed the more recent history of Iranian-U.S. relations, the Nuclear Deal concluded with Barack Obama, Donald Trump's abrogation of the treaty and the horrific human consequences of the sanctions imposed on Iran by the U.S. We also discussed internal politics in Iran and prospects for an possible progress with the Biden administration. Professor Sadeghi-Boroujerdi is the author if numerous works, including Revolution and its Discontents: Political Thought and Reform in Iran, Cambridge University Press, 2019, and many articles, some listed below.....

Link to bioRxiv paper: http://biorxiv.org/cgi/content/short/2020.05.21.079152v1?rss=1 Authors: Dickey, C. W., Sargsyan, A., Madsen, J. R., Eskandar, E. N., Cash, S. S., Halgren, E. Abstract: Sleep spindles facilitate memory consolidation in the cortex during mammalian non-rapid eye movement (NREM) sleep. In rodents, phase-locked firing during spindles may facilitate spike-timing-dependent plasticity (STDP) by grouping pre- and post-synaptic cell firing within ~25ms. Currently, microphysiological evidence in humans for conditions conducive for STDP during spindles is absent. We analyzed local field potentials and supragranular unit spiking during spindles from 10x10 arrays of microelectrodes at 400{micro}m pitch in humans. We found strong tonic and phase-locked increases in firing and co-firing within 25ms during spindles. Co-firing, spindle co-occurrence, and spindle coherence were greatest between sites within ~2mm, and high co-firing of units on different electrodes was largely restricted to moments of high spindle coherence between those electrodes. Spindles propagated at ~0.23m/s in distinct patterns, with correlated cell co-firing sequences. These results suggest that spindles may organize spatiotemporal patterns of neuronal co-firing which promote memory consolidation during NREM sleep. Copy rights belong to original authors.

On this episode of SEPADPod Simon speaks with Eskandar Sadeghi-Boroujerdi, lecturer in Comparative Political Theory at Goldsmiths. Sadeghi-Boroujerdi is the author of Revolution and its Discontents Political Thought and Reform in Iran (Cambridge University Press, 2019) and a number of articles that deal with political theory and theology in Iran. On this episode, Simon and Eskandar talk about the role of political theory in aiding our understanding of Iran and the broader Middle East, discuss the emergence and evolution of Islamic intellectuals in Iran's post-revolutionary reform movement, and consider the interaction of global forces with local politics in Iran. A fascinating and thought provoking episode.
