About this event
This holiday season, give to:
Truth and understanding
The Media Line's intrepid correspondents are in Israel, Gaza, Lebanon, Syria and Pakistan providing first-person reporting.
They all said they cover it.
We see it.
We report with just one agenda: the truth.


In Women and the Islamic Republic: How Gendered Citizenship Conditions the Iranian State challenges, Shirin Saeidi demonstrates how multiple forms of citizenship have developed in post-revolutionary Iran and how these findings destabilize the binary formulation of democratization and authoritarianism which has not only dominated investigations of Iran but also regime categorizations in political science more broadly.
