Dr. John Ghazvinian is an author, historian and former journalist specializing in the history of US-Iran relations. This lecture examines Iran’s controversial nuclear program from the critical perspective of history – from its origins under the Shah’s regime in the 1950s, to the close US-Iranian nuclear cooperation of the 1960s and 1970s, to the changing dynamic that followed the Iranian revolution in the 1980s and 1990s.
