By analyzing the nuclear discourses that have emerged over the past two decades in Iran, the author demonstrates how political leaders have portrayed the nuclear program as an indication of the political system's efficiency in overcoming the crisis of political legitimacy. This book demonstrates that while internal conflicts and international pressures caused nuclear discourses to lose their legitimacy-building potential, the persistence of an inefficiency crisis continues to fuel the legitimacy crisis. These developments could potentially pave the way for a shift in Iran's relations with the West.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eHossein Nourani\u003c\/b\u003e is an independent scholar holding a PhD in Social Sciences from Hitotsubashi University.
