- Immigration and Revolution in Iran: Asylum politics and State Consolidation Amin Moghadam Safinaz Jadali Multidisciplinarias (Ciencias Sociales) Iran Revolution State Building Afghan Migrants Immigration and Asylum Politics In May 2019, remarks by the then Deputy Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi implying Iran might ask Afghans to leave the country as U.S. sanctions tightened sparked widespread criticism from various segments of Iranian society. Critics from civil society and political factions accused Araghchi of using Afghans as leverage to extract concessions from Europe, and ignoring revolutionary ideals. Drawing on literature emphasising the role of mobilities in shaping the state, we posit that migration politics and related social dynamics are an integral element in state formation in post-revolutionary Iran, offering insights into the nature of Iran’s political system. We argue that the Islamic Republic’s immigration and asylum politics reflect both the revolutionary legacy and a political system striving for normalization, looking at how Iran’s migration regime was formed, encompassing the institutionalization of migration governance, ad hoc policies, migration diplomacy, conflicting political factions, and bottom-up social pressures. 2021 artículo científico 1980-8585 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=407069927003 https://www.redalyc.org/journal/4070/407069927003/ https://www.redalyc.org/journal/4070/407069927003/html/ https://www.redalyc.org/journal/4070/407069927003/407069927003.epub https://www.redalyc.org/journal/4070/407069927003/movil 10.1590/1980-85852503880006303 en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=4070 REMHU - Revista Interdisciplinar da Mobilidade Humana application/pdf Centro Scalabriniano de Estudos Migratórios REMHU - Revista Interdisciplinar da Mobilidade Humana (Brasil) Num.63 Vol.29
