Drawing on archival evidence and in-depth interviews with members of the Iranian Students Association, Moradian traces what she calls \"revolutionary affects\"--the embodied force of affect generated by experiences of repression and resistance--from encounters with empire and dictatorship in Iran to joint organizing with other student activists in the United States. Moradian theorizes \"affects of solidarity\" that facilitated Iranian student participation in a wide range of antiracist and anticolonial movements and analyzes gendered manifestations of revolutionary affects within the emergence of Third World feminism. Arguing for a transnational feminist interpretation of the Iranian Student Association's legacy, Moradian demonstrates how the recognition of multiple sources of oppression in the West and in Iran can reorient Iranian diasporic politics today.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eManijeh Moradian is Assistant Professor in the Department of Women's, Gender, and Sexuality Studies at Barnard College, Columbia University.\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 352\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.74 x 9 x 6 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIllustrated:\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e November 29, 2022\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45653288943718,"sku":"9781478018810","price":55.79,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0599\/7255\/0758\/files\/bklMeWpWbkw5d2dWcFRuSXNwWWl6UT09.webp?v=1779562226","url":"https:\/\/infinitylightwa.com\/products\/this-flame-within-iranian-revolutionaries-in-the-united-states-paperback","provider":"Infinity Light","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
