Publisher Synopsis
"One of the most methodologically sound and theoretically grounded studies of Iranian youth produced so far... Highly recommended."-Choice "A lively and rich text for anybody interested in youth culture, urban and popular cultures, cultural politics, Muslim cultures, and Middle East studies. Shahram Khosravi defies popular images of dull Iranian culture and introduces vibrant features of Tehran life and cultural negotiations. The book successfully engages and uniquely contributes to ongoing debates about Islam, modernity, culture, urban spaces, and resistance."-Anthropological Quarterly Read more...
