Description: The study was formed within the motivation framework to understand Middle Eastern politics. The hot developments in the region made it necessary to understand Iranian politics. The aim was to provide basic knowledge of the political history and institutions of Iran, one of the most important countries in the Middle East, upon completion of the prepared training. Our course consists of eight lessons in total. In our first lesson, we will start Iranian political history with the period of Reza Shah Pahlavi. In this lesson, the reforms made during Reza Shah Pahlavi were discussed in detail. In our second lesson, the period of Mohammad Reza Shah, who succeeded Reza Shah Pahlavi to the throne, was examined. The period of Mohammad Mosaddegh, who was the prime minister during this period, was discussed. The coup process, called Operation Ajax, the foreign interventions in Iranian politics, and the importance of oil in Iranian politics were discussed. The reform process of Mohammad Reza Shah Pahlavi, who followed in his father's footsteps, called the "White Revolution", was evaluated with its pros and cons. Our third lesson was devoted to the TUDEH Party, one of the leading forces of the Iranian opposition. In this lesson, the ideological structure and institutional traditions of the TUDEH Party were reviewed. In the same context, the position taken by the party during the breaking points of Iranian politics was discussed, opening a different window in understanding Iranian politics. In our fourth lesson, the People's Mujahideen Organization, which is an opposition movement in Iranian politics like the TUDEH Party, was evaluated. The historical process of the movement in question and its role in Iranian politics were discussed. In our fifth lesson, the process leading to the Islamic Revolution in Iran and the new political climate that emerged in Iran after the revolution were evaluated. The religious-ideological codes of the Islamic Revolution in Iran were emphasized, and the Hostage Crisis with the USA was discussed
