A Model or a Menace ?
Sino-Iranian Relations in the 20th Century
A focus on the 1950s and Mossadegh Era
This talk will explore the relationship between China and Iran in the 20th century, with a focus on the 1950s and the Mossadegh era in particular. It will begin with a brief exploration of historical background, exploring how pre-modern Silk Road ties were transformed by the changes brought about by the advent of colonialism and information sharing technology in the late-19th and early 20th centuries, bringing on the advent of what can be called modern Sino-Iranian relations. Following the Chinese Communist Revolution of 1949, Iranians of all political persuasions began to take a keen interest in the experience of China.
