Abstract :Iran continues to occupy a special place in the hotly debated world agenda. Nuclear crisis, the future of the reform movement and elections, in addition with Iran’s role in the ongoing Syrian civil war has dominated global news. Turkey, as a neighboring country, is no exception to this fierce foreign interest in Iranian affairs yet it cannot be claimed that this interest stems from a solely academic point of view. Iran occupies a unique role within global political discourse, and especially so for Turkey. Iranian politics capture the attention of both Turkish academics and the Turkish public, but original works in Turkish on Iranian politics are scarce.
