Essay from the year 2012 in the subject Politics - Region: Near East, Near Orient, grade: none , University of Miami (Department of Political Science), course: The United States and the Middle East, language: English, abstract: This research paper will analyze the events of mid-August, 1953, during which the CIA conducted a clandestine coup d'etat do remove the democratically elected prime minister of Iran, Mohammad Mossadegh from office and install a more pro-Western regime. The essay will give equal attention to agency and structure, providing an analysis of crucial characters such as Kermit Roosevelt, Shah Mohammed Reza Pahlavi and Mohammed Mossadegh himself, as well as an investigation into the structural underpinnings, which include the Cold War background and Iranian oil resources. Three key implications will be outlined. First, the direct effect on Iran's domestic situation will be delineated. Secondly, the successful 1953 coup will be highlighted as the dawn of more active CIA involvement in the conduct of US foreign policy. Lastly, the coup's implications for the United States' image and scope for policy-making in the Middle East will be analyzed, taking into account its role as a catalyst for the 1978-9 Iranian Revolution and subsequent installment of an Islamic regime.
