I’ve included ToC, generous endorsements from @DabashiHamid @naghmehs & Afshin Matin-asgari, & first page of my 14K word intro. Hoping not only 2 introduce Halliday’s book 2 new gen of readers but mount challenge to revisionism & facile caricatures of left writing on Pahlavi era.

Recently gave a talk in Oxford on how visions of “Third Worldism” and “anti-imperialism” were *essentially contested*, both in the lead up to and during the Iranian Revolution of 1979, building on many years of research, and had a great and lively discussion afterwards.

‘Mr. Hazan went to newly independent Algeria in 1962 to lend his services, and to Lebanon in 1975 to practice medicine in Palestinian refugee camps…La Fabrique, run out of a single room, became “a reference point for the decolonization movement”.’

Eric Hazan, Publisher and Historian on France’s Left, Dies at 87

He elevated many of France’s most provocative writers through his publishing house, La Fabrique, but he made his greatest mark as a politically engaged, and strolling, historian of Paris.

“Revolution of Things” is out. Part of its goal is to show how shifting relations between materiality and language animate different forms that social relations take, including domination, rupture & war. Here is a thread about that angle of my book [1/9]

@AlinaSajed @HosniehMarbini Sadly no recording and it was a synthesis of multiple papers and chapters I’ve written in this area. I am planning to write up a single paper which weaves together all of these disparate threads which I would love to run past you once I’ve finished it!
