The urban riots against the rising price of eggs, bread and gasoline that began in Mashhad on December 28th have led to a hyperinflation of expectations about the imminent coming of an anti-clerical revolution in Iran. Scholars on this panel explore the local, national, regional, and global aspects of the economic problems that have shaped the current constellation of protest in provincial towns in Iran. To explain the peculiarity of the current wave of protest, panel participants will compare and contrast it with earlier urban riots and uprisings in Iran.
