Abstract: An 8 page paper comparing the methods and views of Iran's last Shah and the Islamic cleric whose followers were instrumental in overthrowing the Shah in favor of establishing the Islamic Republic. The paper discusses political, economical and religious aspects of the nation under each leader, and concludes that in many ways, there were far more similarities between the leaders than there were differences. The differences that did exist were all-telling, however. Bibliography lists 10 sources.
