Political Movements before, during, and after the 1979 Iranian Revolution

Diplomsko delo je analiza konsolidacije oblasti ajatole Homeinija in njegovih privržencev v obdobju po revoluciji leta 1979. V revolucionarnem gibanju, ki je z oblasti odstavilo šaha Mohameda Rezo Pahlavija, je namreč sodelovalo ogromno število političnih organizacij in ostalih družbenih skupin, ki jih je združil skupni cilj: odstavitev šaha. Kljub temu, da se je verska komponenta s prevlado nad revolucionarnim gibanjem začela že med samo revolucijo, je bilo vprašanje politične pluralnosti v novem sistemu v prvih dveh letih po revoluciji še vedno odprto. Homeiniju je uspelo v štirih letih po revoluciji opozicijska gibanja in stranke bodisi inkorporirati v sistem bodisi jih povsem odrezati od oblasti in sčasoma prepovedati.The following work is an analysis of power consolidation of Ayatollah Khomeini and his followers in the period after the 1979 revolution. In the revolutionary movement that removed Shah Mohammad Reza Pahlavi from power, a huge number of political organizations and other social groups participated, united by a common goal: the removal of the Shah. Despite the fact that the religious component began to dominate the revolutionary movement during the revolution itself, the question of the plurality in the system was still open in the first two years after the revolution. In the four years after the revolution, Khomeini managed to either incorporate opposition movements and parties into the system or completely cut them off from power and eventually ban them
