“Farhad Khosrokhavar provides a timely and penetrating analysis of the protests that rocked the Islamic Republic following the murder of Mahsa Jina Amini in September 2022. This detailed study sheds important light on the depth and nature of the protest and on why politics in the Islamic Republic will never be the same again.” Ali Ansari, University of St Andrews “Revolt Against Theocracy masterfully demonstrates how the ‘Woman, life, freedom’ uprisings – led by women and supported by their young male compatriots in solidarity – became the first feminist movement in Iran whose demands went beyond gender equality, and that forged a vision of a secular and democratic society in which both women and men can pursue their civic lives freely and with dignity.” Ali Banuazizi, Boston College
