IMPACT

Ali-Reza’s death

It remains to be seen what impact Ali-Reza’s death will have on a society in turmoil

06-Jan-2011 (19 comments)
Aside from a loyal group of monarchists in exile, very few Iranians pay heed to the Pahlavi family’s aspirations to return to power, making the news of Ali-Reza Pahlavi’s suicide that much more heart-wrenching. Even for the eldest surviving brother, Reza, there is something nearly suicidal in grasping for a throne that will never be again. Still, he has some connection to the world outside himself>>>

Tragic End

Alireza Pahlavi's suicide

06-Jan-2011 (45 comments)
This shocking act of self-slaughter was the latest violent tragedy in the long history of a family drenched in blood—first that of the Iranians it tortured and killed, then its own. It is a drama of Shakespearean dimensions. The shah once ruled Iran with an iron fist, but his family later paid dearly for his sins, echoing Hamlet's judgment that royal crime “cannot come to good.”>>>

LIFE

Why did he do it?

Alireza Pahlavi and the aftermath of his death

06-Jan-2011 (17 comments)
The death of a young man in the prime of his life is sad, but here’s why I think some may not feel the same. In academics, we learn early on that every phenomenon must be studied in the context in which it happens; otherwise we fail to see the full picture. Alireza Pahlavi wasn’t just any 44 year old committing suicide; he was the son of the much controversial former Shah of Iran, and naturally this attachment stirs much sympathy along with abhorrence. To expect individuals to treat this as just any other suicide is trivializing it>>>

خودکشی دردی را دوا نمی‌کند

علیرضا پهلوی در آغاز سال نو میلادی، به خودش گلوله زد و در غربت جان سپرد. آیا این خودکشی‌ها نمادی از بن‌بست است؟ آیا خاطرۀ دردناک مرگ پدر و خواهرش لیلا، او را به این اتنخاب کشید؟ آیا چون «از آنچه به ناروا بر میهن عزیزش می‌گذشت آزرده و غمگین بود...» ـ خود را کشت؟ >>>
