    • Abstract:
      I found one, "Noble Robbers, Avengers and Entrepreneurs: Eric Hobsbawm and Banditry in Iran, the Middle East, and North Africa", not as substantive. Together they offer provocative insights into how modernity and social and political marginality were experienced in Iran and the wider Middle East. "Methodological nationalism", as the author calls it, is a significant issue that plagues academic studies and popular perceptions of Iran, as Cronin demonstrates in the first chapter (and only previously unpublished case study).
