One of the most enduring features of Iranian politics under the Islamic Republic has been the kaleidoscope of competing factions. . . . But, as the author of this well-researched and informative book makes clear, factional divisions in contemporary Iran are far more complicated and fluid, and they do not lend themselves to simple classification. . . . Moslem provides a detailed analysis of factions and factional interaction in post-Khomeni Iran.
