Discuss the source of the legitimacy problem associated with
“earthly” regimes in Shia Islam prior to Khomeini’s book,
Vilayat-e Faghih. How does Khomeini’s revision of this allow
for the establishment of a theocracy within this country?
Describe in detail how Iran combines theocracy with democracy
in its governmental system. Assess the relative balance
between these two forces.
What are some of the ways in which the oil industry has
advanced or distorted development in Iran?
List the steps in the electoral process used to elect the Iranian
president. What is considered to be the main obstacle to fair
elections in Iran?
What are the powers and limitations of Iran’s parliament?
What are the most important political challenges that now face
Iran?
What is the PRI? Describe how it has traditionally dominated
the Mexican political system. List the other main political
parties and briefly discuss their general platforms and typical
supporters.
Describe the process of el dedazo. Describe two reasons why
this process is no longer utilized in Mexico.
Mexico’s political system was traditionally characterized as a
“hyper-presidential” system. What formed the basis for this
characterization? Is this characterization still true? (Make sure
to support your argument here.)
Are state institutions like the military and the judiciary truly
independent of the executive branch of government? In what
ways have these institutions promoted or hindered the growth of
democracy in recent years?
What are the power bases of the main political parties in
Mexican politics? What factors made it possible for the PAN to
unseat the long-dominant PRI in 2000? What accounts for the
continuing viability of the PRI as a political force?

Mexican’s strong sense of national identity?
