Notes

1. In some 330 pages of text, the Shah is only mentioned three times.

2. Fifteen months after this seminar, another symposium was held at Persepolis to discuss processes of development in Iran. Known as the Aspen Institute/Persepolis Symposium, this gathering did confront the issues of social and political development. Although one may raise serious questions concerning the content of the papers, it is clear that this seminar was much more successful in addressing the key developmental issues in Iran than was the Iran/Princeton effort. For the published record of the Aspen conference, see Jacqz, Jane W. (ed.), Iran: Past, Present and Future (New York: Aspen Institute for Humanistic Studies, 1976).Google Scholar
