Monarchy

The Iranian monarchy was overthrown after the revolution of 1979 and replaced by an Islamic republic. Although the most prominent royals now live in exile, some Iranians still regard Pahlavi as the current Shah of Iran. After the death of his father, Mohammad Reza Shah, Pahlavi symbolically declared himself Shahanshah at the age of 21, but now his press releases refer to him as either "Reza Pahlavi" or "the former Crown Prince". ‹ The template below has been proposed for deletion. ...

Prospects of a royal restoration

Young Reza Pahlavi proclaiming himself as the crown prince of Iran on television.

In an interview with David Frost on the BBC's Breakfast with Frost programme, Pahlavi defined his aims with the words "I think that the choice of future government should be left to the Iranian people to decide in a free election. What form it ultimately take is up to them, the issue, the essential point for me is that there is no way that we can achieve the aspirations that we have as a nation unless we have the separation of church and state and under the current regime clearly we don't have that."[7] Reza Pahlavi has clearly stated though that in his opinion a constitutional monarchic system will better serve democracy in Iran rather than a republic system.[8] Image File history File links Reza_Pahlavi_II.jpg From Official website of Reza Pahlavi File history Legend: (cur) = this is the current file, (del) = delete this old version, (rev) = revert to this old version. ...

Critics are dismissive of the prospective return of a Pahlavi to the throne. "Speaking purely theoretically, everything is possible," prominent pro-reform journalist Mashallah Shamsolvaezin told AFP. "After all, look what happened in Spain after the fall of General Franco — a king replaced him. But if we look at the reality of Iranian society today, the hypothesis of a return of the monarchy is very far from reality. The revolution and the Islamic republic have reinforced the foundation of a republican system in Iran, and there are very few people who want a monarchy. The overwhelming majority of people are against it."[9] AFP as an acronym can stand for: Agence France-Presse Alpha-fetoprotein American Free Press Apple Filing Protocol Association for Financial Professionals Armed Forces Police Australia First Party Australian Federal Police Automatic Frequency Planning, a term used in mobile communications Advanced Function Presentation, an IBM printing architecture and file format. ...


Others are less dismissive. Rob Sobhani, an academic and political activist told the BBC "I think there's a role for all dissidents, including the son of the Shah - because Iran today is thirsty for leadership, Iran is thirsty for someone with vision. I think what's lacking in Iranian politics today is someone with a vision. I think if that individual - a man or a woman - appears on the scene and grabs the attention of the Iranian people, with a vision of what he or she would like the country to move towards, they will certainly be the beneficiary of that goodwill, that thirst for a leader."[10]


Pahlavi maintains a hope that opposition groups such as the nationalist and the communist parties are also against the current regime can be united to bring down the regime.[11]


Reports do however speak of a growing curiosity about Pahlavi. A Wall Street Journal report in November 2001 quoted a 17-year-old Iranian student as saying "We didn't know who he was. But as soon as we heard him, we felt it was our own words that we couldn't say. He said them beautifully."[12] The Wall Street Journal is an influential international daily newspaper published in New York City, New York with an average daily circulation of 1,800,607 (2002). ...


Politics

Reza Pahlavi has used his high profile status as an Iranian abroad to campaign politically for human rights, democracy, and unity to Iranians in Iran and outside it. On his website he calls for a separation of religion and state in Iran and for free and fair elections "for all freedom-loving individuals and political ideologies". He exhorts all groups dedicated to a democratic agenda to work together for a democratic and secular Iranian government. The Politics series Politics Portal This box:      Politics is the process by which groups of people make decisions. ... Human rights are rights which some hold to be inalienable and belonging to all humans. ...


Pahlavi has used media appearances to urge Iran's theocratic government to accept a referendum that used independently verfiable international standards and observation mechanisms.[13][14][15] He has also urged Iranians to engage in a campaign of non-violent civil disobedience, starting with non-participation in elections of the Islamic republic (elections he views as "undemocratic"), followed by peaceful demonstrations and strikes. He is, however, an outspoken opponent of any foreign military intervention for regime change in Iran,[16] believing that the people of Iran alone have the power to bring about change in their governmental system and society. Theocracy is a form of government in which a religion and the government are allied. ...

On 5 August 2005, Pahlavi wrote to the Secretary General of the United Nations, Kofi Annan, to criticise the decision "not to call for a Special Rapporteur on human rights in Iran during the last meeting of the U.N.

In the letter, he wrote

Many if not all the political prisoners in Iran are brutalized and held in solitary confinement in spite of the numerous specific recommendations of the United Nations to stop and put an end to such inhuman practices. Unfortunately the Islamic Republic of Iran has so far ignored these recommendations as well as all the urgent appeals made by international human rights organizations such as Amnesty International and Human Rights Watch. Despite the threats, human rights activists in Iran continue to fight for their freedom and human rights at the risk of imprisonment, torture, disappearance and death. I salute their courage and dedication.[18]

Quotations

  • "Don't appease the dictators. They only understand the language of power."[19]
  • I know what my function is today, and my function today is to be a catalyst that promotes unity as opposed to being an element that brings polarity. My role today is not institutional, it's political. My role today is not someone who will be a symbolic leader under that institution, but a national leader that is fighting for freedom. [10]
  • "It is the real content of the political system that matters, not the name. I would like to openly declare that, if, in a free referendum, the people of Iran would choose the future government of their country to be a democratic republic, I will have achieved more than ninety percent of what I hoped for. I expect, however, every patriotic Iranian republican to think in the same way if the people's choice is a constitutional monarchy."[citation needed]
  • ""Women's rights are human rights ... Under the clerics, however, the Iranian women have suffered the most by having been subject to the most humiliating social restrictions and laws."[20]
  • "Our country is at the crossroads of destiny. The slightest neglect will cause irreparable loss for our motherland. Our responsibility before history demands that we spare no effort to save our nation from the tyranny of this insane and inhuman regime. Differences of views and opinions between political leaders and organizations are natural in any open society. It is a fruitless exercise to argue and linger on these differences, however, while the people are forced out of the arena of decision, and there is no freedom of discussion or choice inside the country." [11]

NOTES:


1) The Pre-Revolutionary Iranian Constitution (Supplementary Fundamental Law), Article 38, as amended 1967) requires that the Crown Prince be at least 20 years of age before ascending the throne. While the Constitutional language is not, of itself, entirely clear as to whether the Crown Prince cannot become Shahanshah before age 20, or if he becomes Shahanshah but cannot assume any of the duties of that office prior to becoming 20, the former interpretation seems more reasonable than the latter, in light of the fact that Reza Pahlavi did not take his Constitutional oath of office until his 20th birthday. Therefore, although Mohammad Reza Shah died on 27 July 1980, his son did not become Shanhanshah until 31 October 1980; the Empress Farah Pahlavi served as regent during the interim, while Reza Pahlavi remained Crown Prince. Evidence of Reza Pahlavi's taking his oath of office and asuming his father's title on 31 October, rather than 27 July, can easily be found in newspapers and magazines around the later date. Also, see Farah Pahlavi's 2004 book, "An Enduring Love" (Chapter 19 -- Page 391), for a discussion of these events. As regent during that three-month period, Farah Pahlavi presumably writes with some authority on this subject. Your "pretend date," then should be 31 October 1980, not 27 July 1980.


2. The Article says later that Reza Pahlavi declared himself Shah at age 21. Of course, his age was 20 at that time.


3. The Article claims that Reza Pahlavi was awarded a decoration by King Carl XVI Gustaf of Sweden in 1970. Carl XVI Gustaf did not become King of Sweden until 1973; that decoration was awarded either by a different monarch, or in a different year.


4. Prior to the Islamic Revolution, Iran described itself as an empire, not as a kingdom, and its monarch was an emperior, not a king. Therefore, the House of Pahlavi should be referred to (in box) as an "Imperial House," not as a "Royal House."
