Ladan Boroumand and Roya Boroumand

Grant Year: 2019

Ladan Boroumand and Roya Boroumand will examine whether social changes in Iran might weaken the religious and ideological underpinnings of the Iranian regime in ways that could lead to political change. They will analyze the history of the Iranian regime’s efforts to muzzle political critics and suppress protests, and examine trends toward the possible secularization of Iranian society. The project’s findings will be published in a series of reports and a monograph.
