Kirjan nimeke englanniksi: Traitors in Contemporary Iranian History.
The great misfortune of authoritarian countries is that the companions of the rulers — those who partake in their gambling, revelry, and nocturnal debauchery — cunningly dictate their own agendas to the seemingly pious rulers. While placing the leaky piggy bank of the treasury over their own wide-open bags of income, they put on a show of balancing income and expenses with statistics that only exist on paper. These actions mislead the unaware ruler, who believes he is well-informed.
Introducing the notorious and treacherous figures of contemporary times is not only unobjectionable but necessary for the awareness of both current and future generations, even if it shames their descendants and future generations in the face of their ancestors' dark deeds. If these descendants gain power, they might take a lesson from this shame and refrain from following in their ancestors' treacherous footsteps.
