Mansour Bonakdarian teaches imperial and comparative history. His work has appeared in periodicals such as Iranian Studies, British Journal of Middle Eastern Studies, and International Journal of Middle East Studies.
For the first time the intricacies of British political society in this period have been explored by someone who has an intimate knowledge of the Iranian Constitutional Revolution of 1906-1911. Throughout this well-balanced and carefully nuanced narrative Bonakdarian shows the interplay between the nationalists in Iran and their supporters abroad, particularly in London and at Westminster. Implicit in his argument is the subtle, timely critique of Edward Said's homogenizing discourse of western Orientalism.... A remarkable achievement. - J. D. Gurney, The Oriental Institute, Oxford University
