The Islamic Republic of Iran is very assertive in seeking a greater role in international politics, especially within the Middle East, and this is the main force behind the current politics of the country. Another force is the perception of an enormous threat from outside among elites, who feel endangered in their position. Therefore, the foreign policy of this theocratic country is highly militarized. One of the important instruments of this policy is the ballistic missile arsenal, which plays an important role in deterrence and propaganda, useful for intimidating or fi ghting against enemies. Iran is striving to develop its ballistic missile capabilities from simple short range to intercontinental and space launch vehicles. Combined with the nuclear weapons that Iran may obtain in the near future, these military capabilities may pose a serious threat to US forces, installations, and friends and allies throughout the region and beyond. There is even a remote but not impossible chance that US soil itself could be endangered, and it is perceived in this way in Washington. Other countries in the Middle East and in Europe may also feel endangered, although there is some argument that nuclear and missile-armed Iran will never be a greater threat than it is now.

The Oudlajan revitalization project proposed in the article, relates to both its contemporary needs and its potential. In its idea, the project uses the Iranian tradition of ‘hangout’ and refers to current trends in spending leisure time as well as shaping (designing) inclusive urban space. In terms of purpose, the project presented is applied, and in terms of methods used, it is a descriptive and analytical (qualitative) study. The article is also a voice in the debate on tourism and urban regeneration. By displaying Persian conditions in shaping the foodscape (tourism taste-space), it contributes to the dynamically-developing research on food tourism and urban culinary space.

Iran. It is based on my master’s thesis, which employed an interdisciplinary approach to diversified sources, among others: sociological materials, historical literature, journalistic texts, novels and films. The article also analyzes non-mainstream context (e.g.: street art), the structure of social groups, the role of private and public space, the dress code, and gender roles. I emphasize the anthropological data: observation, conversations and the survey based on a questionnaire which consisted of open questions and was filled by 19 respondents. While presenting the history and evolution of the city and its contemporary situation, I attempt to show Tehran’s currently prevailing trends and the perception of the city by its citizens and the others: foreigners, who do not identify themselves as “the Tehranis”. The observed development of Tehran and its human dimension shows the city and its citizens via the voices of the inhabitants of this polyphonic metropolis, which, in my opinion, still presents a terra incognita in the international discourse. Undoubtedly, Tehran will continue to develop and to attract individuals wishing to exploit the possibilities offered by the city which is repeatedly stated to epitomize the whole of Iran.
