About the Book

This book reconstructs and analyzes the history of left-wing politics in Iran and its Russo-Caucasian origins during the Persian Constitutional Revolution. It is also a history of the formative years of the socialist movement in Iran between the first Russian revolution of 1905, when Iran first felt the organizational influence of Russian Marxism, and the suppression of the Iranian Constitutional regime by Tsarists bayonets in the shadow of British support in 1911.

This is the first study to unravel and reconstruct the decisive role of social democracy in Iran's most imporant transformation in modern times and recovers a vital part of Iran's modern history. Based on research in Iranian, Azeri, Armenian, Georgian, Russian, British, German, French and American sources, it explains the deep roots and consequences of the Iranian Constitutional Revolution and its international character.
