This episode of Guerrilla History is a continuation of our Sanctions As War miniseries. In this fascinating episode, we have a discussion with Professor Muhammad Sahimi on the history and the impacts of sanctions on Iran, which is both an immensely enlightening and heartbreaking conversation. This episode is particularly timely given the current situation in Iran, which the last question of the interview addresses. Be sure to also stay turned for more installments of our Sanctions As War series!
Muhammad Sahimi is a Professor at the University of Southern California, where he analyses Iran’s political development, its nuclear program, and its foreign policy. From 2008 to 2012 he was the lead political analyst at E0*/Frontline/Tehran Bureau website.
