Book excerpt: International attention is feverishly focused on the question of "if" the P5+1 and Iran will be able to agree and on what. Any deal with Iran must demand significant dismantling of Iran's nuclear infrastructure, including eliminating the vast majority of Iran's centrifuge cascades and Low Enriched Uranium (LEU), terminating Iran's R&D efforts to create more advanced centrifuges, and moving the timeline for detectable breakout by Iran beyond a year. Less attention is focused on perhaps the more critical, strategically relevant question: What happens after a deal? What are the strategic implications for the United States, for our allies and partners? What are the strategic implications of a politically and economically resurgent Iran, and what are the goals of its leaders in the aftermath of such a deal?
Download or read book Iran Nuclear Accord and the Remaking of the Middle East written by Nader Entessar and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2017-12-20 with total page 299 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Entessar & Afrasiabi’s Iran Nuclear Negotiations (Rowman & Littlefied, October 2015) offered a thorough analysis of the negotiation process between Iran and the 5+1 great powers about its nuclear program. This book essentially builds upon it, focusing this time on the final nuclear agreement, the ensuing debates around it, and its global and regional ramifications especially in the Middle East. The first section analyzes the agreement through the prism of international relations theories, using a constructivist-critical theory approach. This is followed by an overview of the intense debates in Iran, the West, and other parts of the world, on the nuclear agreement and its various pros and cons, not to mention the connected, yet separate Iran-IAEA agreement. The second section covers Iran’s foreign policy and its various priorities, looking in particular at the impact of the nuclear deal on the country’s external relations and orientations, contextualized in terms of pre-existing issues and concerns and the profound influence of the nuclear agreement on the perceptions of Iranian power in the region and beyond. Iran’s relations with its Arab, Turkish, Russian, and other neighbors are discussed, focusing on both the direct and indirect impact of the nuclear agreement on these relations, especially the paradoxical implications of the nuclear deal with respect to the non-nuclear crises in the Middle East, such as the Syria-Iraq crisis, and the re-alignments that have put Iran at the crossroads of East and West. Other issues covered include energy security, regional economic cooperation, the endemic sectarianism highlighted by Iran-Saudi competition, and the deadlock on the Middle East peace process. The third section then examines the issue of a Middle East nuclear weapons-free zone and the likely consequences of the Iran nuclear deal on this prospect, which, in turn, raises the issue of regional proliferation and counterproliferation. The last section explores some possible various scenarios and the challenges of implementation as a relatively long-term agreement, providing specific policy recommendations for the regional actors and the external powers that are stakeholders in the volatile Middle East.

This book was released on 2018-03-02 with total page 142 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The US-Iran nuclear deal is an outcome of international efforts to overcome an enduring chaotic situation that had seriously been affecting peace and security not only in the Middle Eastern region but also the world. The US-Iran nuclear deal earned the credit of being an exceptional diplomatic achievement on part of the Obama administration; however, on the other hand, this deal has also raised serious concerns among the US allies in the Middle Eastern region. Middle Eastern Arab countries, especially Saudi Arabia perceived the US-Iran nuclear deal as a threat to the regional security and prevailing balance of power. To be more specific, Saudi Arabia has serious concerns over this deal as it considers the US-Iran nuclear deal will unfold many opportunities for Iran including economic, political and military. The alleged proxies sponsorship by Iran in the Middle Eastern region, particularly the Hezbollah and other Shiite militant groups, pose threat to the Saudi Arabia and its allies' interests. This studies is an attempt to investigate the effect of the US-Iran nuclear deal on regional status-quo and the prevalent balance of power in the region. This study also investigates any possibility for future conflict or peace process and confrontation between Iran and the Saudi Arabia following the US-Iran nuclear deal.

Book excerpt: Essay from the year 2019 in the subject Orientalism / Sinology - Islamic Studies, grade: 3, Egerton University (teaching), course: Education, language: English, abstract: Iran nuclear threat continues to bring the world tension over the harshness and aggressiveness of the nation. The country has often made efforts to start a war within the region, and with it as a source of worlds energy through oil, it is a concern when it continues to threaten the peace and stability of the entire world. A large number of treaties have been put in place to attempt to help the situation such as the signing of various deals over the years to ensure peaceful co-existence, but the present action by the US government to withdraw from the Iran Deal threatens the continued stability within the region after several years. Iran has been able to threaten several countries within the area including stating an explicit threat to US allies such as Israel. The threat negatively indirectly influences the US as the country relies on Iran as a source of energy. Therefore, attempts to understand the role of US and other nations within the region towards eliminating the threat of Iran nuclear requires a deep understanding of the Iran nuclear program, the impact of US withdrawal from the JCPOA agreement and measures to deter the country from the acquisition of nuclear weapons.
Download or read book The Iran Nuclear Deal written by Saira Khan and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2024-02-20 with total page 297 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book delves deep into the complex dynamics surrounding the Iran nuclear deal and its subsequent fracture. In a post-2018 world, following the United States’ withdrawal from the 2015 Iran nuclear agreement, this work dissects the ramifications of this geopolitical shift, particularly with respect to Iran's nuclear ambitions. The book's central premise revolves around the idea that Iran's pursuit of nuclear capabilities is intricately tied to its enduring conflicts with Iraq, Israel, and the United States. It argues that the nuclear deal had the potential to quell these conflicts, particularly the long-standing rivalry between Iran and the U.S., thus reshaping Iran's relationships in the Middle East. However, with the U.S. exit from the agreement and its accusations of Iranian sponsorship of terrorism, Iran now perceives a heightened threat, potentially leading it to consider nuclear weapons as a deterrent against a potential war with the U.S. The book challenges conventional international relations paradigms with regards to Iran: realism, which typically predicts all conflicting states will seek nuclear weapons regardless of cooperative arrangements, is shown to ignore the nuanced connection between cooperation and proliferation propensity; and liberalism's emphasis on cooperation is critiqued in this case for overlooking the negative consequences of failed cooperative endeavours. The book highlights the importance of trust and compliance in the success of cooperative agreements, as well as the adverse effects of their breakdown. The work contributes significantly to our understanding of international relations in the Middle East. It draws on an extensive examination of prior research while presenting novel theoretical insights. The detailed case study of Iran's nuclear aspirations before, during, and after the nuclear deal serves as a compelling application of the theoretical framework. Finally, the book provides an in-depth exploration of the intricate web of geopolitics, trust, and cooperation that has shaped the trajectory of Iran's nuclear ambitions. It offers not only theoretical contributions to the field of international relations but also valuable policy insights for managing this critical international issue.
Download or read book Deterring Iran after the Nuclear Deal written by Kathleen H. Hicks and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2017-03-29 with total page 122 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Despite a U.S. focus on securing an international deal to curb Iran’s nuclear development for the last several years, the United States lacks a strategy to combat the full range of Iranian activities that threaten the interests of the United States and its allies but fall short of conventional warfare. In this report, CSIS’s International Security Program sets forth analysis of Iran’s strategy, motivations, military, and paramilitary capabilities and evaluates the effects of Iranian behavior on key U.S. partners. The study leverages the expertise of contributing authors at CSIS, the American Enterprise Institute, the Center for Naval Analyses, the Washington Institute for Near East Policy, Harvard University and the University of Hawaii to inform its analysis. The study proposes a framework for deterring Iran, including practical recommendations for the U.S. administration and Congress that would enhance the security of the United States and its allies and partners.

Book excerpt: The Belfer Center for Science and International Affairs at the Harvard Kennedy School has produced this briefing book on the Iran deal in the interest of contributing to informed Congressional review and public discourse on the agreement. First, we have provided a concise description of the complex agreement and the accompanying UN Security Council Resolution 2231, including areas that appear ambiguous. Second, we have tried to provide a balanced assessment of the agreement's strengths and weaknesses with respect to its central objective to prevent Iran from acquiring nuclear weapons. We have not tried to address larger political questions, such as the implications of the agreement on Iran's behavior in the region and domestic politics, implications of the agreement on regional dynamics in the Middle East and the larger non-proliferation regime, or the relationship between the nuclear issue and other areas of dispute between the U.S. and Iran. Our focus is on the merits and drawbacks within the four corners of the agreement itself.

Download or read book Iran Resurgent written by Mahan Abedin and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2019-07-15 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Iran has emerged from decades of isolation and struggle to become a leading, if not the pre-eminent, regional power. Iran projects its influence throughout the Middle East and parts of Central Asia. Moreover, Iranian diplomacy is active on the world stage, with long-term projects in Africa and South America. The landmark nuclear deal of July 2015 was a major triumph and saw the Islamic Republic successfully negotiate with several world powers to reach a mutually acceptable agreement. Crucially, whilst the nuclear deal restricts Iran's nuclear programmed for at least a decade, it doesn't irreversibly dismantle any part of it. With internal Iranian politics stabilizing around a centrist administration led by President Rouhani, the country is set to continue on a path of regional strategic growth. But with clear signs that the Trump administration is determined to contain Iran's regional influence, what is the risk of a military confrontation? This book argues that Iran has developed sufficient diplomatic strength and credible military capability to deter a full-scale US military assault. But absent a dramatic lowering of tensions, there remains a risk of limited clashes, with far-reaching consequences for regional security.

Download or read book Triple Axis written by Ariane Tabatabai and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2018-07-30 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The most significant challenge to the post-Cold War international order is the growing power of ambitious states opposed to the West. Iran, Russia and China each view the global structure through the prism of historical experience. Rejecting the universality of Western liberal values, these states and their governments each consider the relative decline of Western economic hegemony as an opportunity. Yet cooperation between them remains fragmentary. The end of Western sanctions and the Iranian nuclear deal; the Syrian conflict; new institutions in Central and East Asia: in all these areas and beyond, the potential for unity or divergence is striking. In this new and comprehensive study, Ariane Tabatabai and Dina Esfandiary address the substance of this `triple axis' in the realms of energy, trade, and military security. In particular they scrutinise Iran-Russia and the often overlooked field of Iran-China relations. Their argument - that interactions between the three will shape the world stage for decades to come - will be of interest to anyone looking to understand the contemporary international security puzzle.
