- Abstract
The article reports on British and American involvement in the 1953 coup d'état in Iran which ousted the anti-colonial democratically elected prime minister Mohammad Mosaddeq and established the rule of Shah Reza Pahlavi, who supported Western interests in his country. It considers how the British Anglo- Iranian Oil Company's interests were nationalized by Mosaddeq in 1951, the foreign relations between the U.S. Great Britain, and Iran, and Britain's refusal to open government archives related to the coup.
