Iranian Revolution AlterLinks Topic Index Recovering Nonviolent History Civil Resistance in Liberation Struggles Resource Type: Book Published: 2013 Essays showing, in considerable detail, the varied roles played by civil resistance in fifteen liberation struggles in Africa, Asia, Europe and the Americas. Workers and Revolution in Iran The Third World Experience of Workers' Control Resource Type: Book Published: 1989 Industrial workers in Iran played a major role in the overthrow of the Shah. This account of the shuras, or factory councils, they set up throws new light on the Shah's defeat, and the consequent revolutionary impulses Ayatollah Khomeini subsequently crushed so ruthlessly. This and other Third World examples show how uneven capitalist development can create conditions conducive to struggles for workers' control in advanced as well as in backward economies.
