Episode 8: Raisi’s Victory – Where to Now For Iran?

Ebrahim Raisi was announced as the winner of the 2021 Iranian Presidential Election within 12 hours of polls closing, in what many commentators saw as an engineered victory. But Raisi’s successful election was not always a done deal, and the Chief Justice was not always the leadership’s preferred choice to succeed Hassan Rouhani.  In this episode, Dr James Barry summarises the election campaign, looking at how the assassination of Qasem Soleimani in January 2020 caused a crisis for the government, and the ways in which Raisi’s rivals were removed in the lead-up to the election over the past two months. In the second half, Dr Barry is joined on the panel by Dr Ali Mozaffari to discuss what sort of leader Raisi will be, what the participation rate tells us about public attitudes to voting in Iran, and what this election means in a larger political and historical context.

Episode 7: Election Day – Who Will Win and Why Raisi?

It's election day in Iran and the result seems a foregone conclusion; however, the meaning of this election lies in its consequences for the future of the Islamic Republic. In this episode, Dr James Barry is joined on the panel by Dr Elham Naeej, Dr Naser Ghobadzadeh and Dr Ali Mozaffari to discuss their interpretations of what is happening. Will there be a Hemmati upset, as some dubious polls are predicting, will this election affect the future of voting in Iran, and has this election been engineered to “save the nezam”? In the second half of the show, the panel is joined by Nasim Basiri of Oregon State University, who explains the specific difficulties face by women in rural and regional Iran which are often left out of Tehran-centric research, as well as the ongoing problem of gendered violence.

Episode 6 - Debating Taboos: How Effective are the Candidates' Appeals to Ethnic Minorities and Women?

It’s one week to Election Day and the first two debates have taken place, with candidates trading insults and making extravagant promises. There was also a concerted effort to appeal to ethnic minorities and women, two significant marginalised groups, to win their votes. In this episode, Dr James Barry discusses the viability of this approach with Dr Elham Naeej, Dr Ali Mozaffari and Dr Naser Ghobadzadeh, asking why Azerbaijanis in particularly are the focus of candidates’ attention. Also up for discussion, the Supreme Leader’s attempt to intervene on the candidates’ list, the absence of foreign policy discussions in the debates and the ongoing issue of accountability. In the second part, special guest Dr Alam Saleh of the Australian National University discusses the politics of ethnicity and sectarianism in Iran, and the use of marginal groups by the state.
