Reinventing Khomeini" offers a new interpretation of the political battles for reform in Iran. Daniel Brumberg argues that these conflicts did not result from a sudden ideological shift, nor did the election of President Mohammad Khatami in 1997 defy the core principles of the Islamic Revolution. To the contrary, the struggle for a more democratic Iran can be traced to the revolution itself, and to the contradictory agendas of the revolution's founding father, Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini.
