How and why was Iran's democratically elected government ousted in 1953? Most studies refer to a 'CIA-led' operation. This study analyses how British agents used the Shah, the ancient Persian Durbar, Majlis deputies, Islamic clergy, and Iranian military officers in the overthrow of the first democratically elected Prime Minister, and highlights how Britain used the 'Communist menace' as a pretext for protecting its oil interests and persuaded the Americans to orchestrate the coup. This close interaction between British colonial interests, American Cold War goals and Iranian politics ultimately defeated the democratic aspirations of Iran's people. 000754293 651_0 $$aGreat Britain$$xForeign relations$$zIran$$y1964-1979. 000754293 651_0 $$aGreat Britain$$xForeign economic relations$$zIran. 000754293 651_0 $$aIran$$xForeign relations$$zGreat Britain$$y1964-1979. 000754293 651_0 $$aGreat Britain$$xPolitics and government$$y1964-1979. 000754293 77608 $$iPrint version:$$aEbrahimi, Mansoureh$$tThe British Role in Iranian Domestic Politics (1951-1953)$$dCham : Springer International Publishing,c2016$$z9783319310978 000754293 830_0 $$aSpringerBriefs in environment, security, development and peace ;$$vv. 5. 000754293 852__ $$bebk 000754293 85640 $$3SpringerLink$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-3-319-31098-5$$zOnline Access$$91397441.1 000754293 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:754293$$pGLOBAL_SET 000754293 980__ $$aEBOOK 000754293 980__ $$aBIB 000754293 982__ $$aEbook 000754293 983__ $$aOnline 000754293 994__ $$a92$$bISE
