نوزایی ایرانی در عهد مغول: بررسی و نقد نظریه‌های انحطاط الفارسية 1448

The decline, decay, or backwardness of Iran has been one of the most enduring subjects of intellectual inquiry over the past two centuries, attracting the attention of scholars, cultural figures, and political thinkers alike. This sustained interest has produced a substantial body of literature examining the causes, mechanisms, consequences, and possible remedies for what has been described as Iran's historical decline.

This book is founded on the premise that any comprehensive, scholarly, and convincing theory of Iranian decline must be built upon a systematic reexamination of each proposed cause through rigorous historical methodology. Drawing upon the broadest possible range of reliable documentary evidence and informed by the latest specialized research, the author reassesses prevailing historical assumptions in order to construct a more balanced understanding of Iran's past and a more constructive perspective on its present and future.

Focusing on the period following the Mongol invasions, this study critically evaluates the hypothesis of Iran's decline from a historical rather than a philosophical standpoint. Particular attention is devoted to the evolution of Iranian political thought and the formation of Iranian identity, offering a nuanced reassessment of one of the central debates in Iranian historiography.
