Description
Summary:The accession of Mahmoud Ahmadinejad to the presidency of the Islamic Republic has entailed a radicalisation of political debate. The growing clout of the current government's most staunch supporter amongst the clergy, Ayatollah Mesbah Yazdi, is perceived as a threat up to the ranks of the conservative right and teachers of Qom. His anti-democratic and elitist ideas, which may be summarised as a radical version of Khomeini's doctrine (vilayat-i faqih), jeopardize the fragile equilibriums the regime has reached between the rule of the people and the rule of God.
