Review :
This book focuses on the Trump administration’s withdrawal from the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA), commonly known as the “Iran nuclear deal.” Arguing in favor of a return to JCPOA, Entessar (emer., Univ. of South Alabama) and Afrasiabi, a political scientist, criticize the administration’s maximum pressure policy toward Iran as unwarranted and unlikely to succeed. They present Iran as a victim of "Iranophobic 'threat inflation'" (p. 190), wrongfully subjected to a “ravaging economic assault by the Trump administration” (p. 77). . . Summing Up: Recommended. . . Graduate students and faculty. “In the wake of the rising tensions between the United States and Iran in the aftermath of the Trump Administration’s withdrawal from the Iran nuclear deal, the task of searching for genuine diplomatic and pragmatic solutions has emerged as one of the most formidable challenges facing the international community. In this book, Entessar and Afrasiabi offer a timely, engaging, and innovative contribution to this task.” “At a time of great uncertainty in U.S.-Iran relations, this book by Entessar and Afrasiabi provides a competent and contextual examination of Trump's confrontational Iran policy and its short and long-term implications for the region. The authors devote considerable and detailed attention to the economic and geopolitical dimensions of Iran's foreign policy towards the U.S., Europe, and the Persian Gulf. The alternative scenarios for war and diplomacy between Iran and the West in this book are of great significance for understanding the existing regional and global trends. Highly recommended.” “Nader Entessar and Kaveh Afrasiabi have written a comprehensive and highly insightful analysis of U.S.-Iran relations since the election of President Donald Trump. They provide the necessary historical and regional context, and then proceed to explain, in a balanced and rigorous way, why Trump's shift from a policy of containment to one of confrontation can only fail.” “For over four decades the conflict between Iran and the U.S. has been a constant fixture of regional and global politics and a major factor in shaping contemporary international relations. The Trump Administration’s dramatic withdrawal from the 2015 Nuclear Agreement, the re-imposition of the “maximum pressure” sanctions, and the threat of a region-wide military confrontation are the latest dynamics in this complex saga. Entessar and Afrasiabi’s excellent work is a very timely and welcomed contribution in unpacking this complexity. The authors navigate this highly charged conflict with a sound and yet jargon free theoretical framework, a balanced, multidimensional, and nuanced analysis, and a very accessible prose. A very valuable book for both the policy and the scholarly community. Highly recommended!” “Trump and Iran is a thorough and thoughtful work by two established scholars of Iranian politics. This book examines the complex American-Iranian relations which have been close to the brink of a war influenced by both domestic and foreign factors that make any peaceful solution difficult to achieve. Beyond its analytical value, the book also has a reference value with an extensive bibliography.”
