Summary
Democratic government is something that has eluded Iran despite a series of non-violent revolutions aimed at establishing a system of governance that would promote both public freedom and political accountability. This title explores the obstacles to the growth of democracy in Iran and posits a plan for non-violent action to help Iranians achieve it.
