There is no doubt that Iran's international relations are of major interest to scholars of international relations and regional studies. Moreover, the country has occupied an important position in global public opinion and the minds of politicians and policymakers, especially since 1979. Surprisingly, Polish political scientists and IR scholars have shown relatively little interest in Iran.1 The publication here under review is a successful attempt to rectify this situation. The introduction invokes 1979 in the context of the 40th anniversary of the founding of the Islamic Republic of Iran in 2020. The aim is to point up the significance of this anniversary. That Iran, in its existing configuration, has impacted both regional and global security for over 40 years is all the more important for us, as the Iranian dossier has been a permanent fixture on the agendas of regionally and globally significant international organisations during this time.(fragment of text)
