Hundreds of protesters have been killed in the crackdown by Iranian security forces on a protest movement that has shaken the Islamic republic. For in-depth analysis and deep insight into the brutal crackdown by the regime, Nadia Massih welcomes Holly Dagres, Senior Fellow in The Washington Institute's Viterbi Program on Iran and US Policy. Ms. Dagres argues that structural changes have fundamentally altered the balance between state power and popular resistance. She calls for a recalibration of international policy toward democratic transition rather than containment.
