The Incarcerated Modern: Prisons and Public Life in Iran

from Iran Debates · host Hossein Setareh

Iran's prison system is a foundational institution of Iranian political modernity. The Incarcerated Modern traces Iran's transformation from a decentralized empire with few imprisoned persons at the turn of the twentieth century into a modern nation-state with over a quarter million prisoners today. In policing the line between "bad criminal" and "good citizen," the carceral system has shaped and reshaped Iranian understandings of citizenship, freedom, and political belonging.
