Hatem Qaderi: [The choice] of war is unfortunately not in the hands of the people

  If we had a clear and strong opposition with clear social support, they could prevent war

The future of monarchy in Iran, an explicit interview with Dr. Hatam Ghaderi, Professor of Political Science University

The monarchy in Iran was not just a form of government, part of our historical and cultural identity.  But why did it collapse and is it possible to return?  Can it stand by democracy like some countries or is it permanently entrusted to history?

Hatam Ghaderi: I think the possibility of bin sterism in Iran is now very weak

  If [Mr. Khamenei's succession] had been done earlier

Hatam Ghaderi: The rulers of the Islamic Republic no longer have authority; Even among themselves!

  Mr. Khamenei's political death - or in the sense of current political rulers of the Islamic Republic - has occurred

Hatem Qaderi: Whatever government comes now, it will take years to fix our infrastructure

  Depression has become a national disease!

Hatem Qaderi: I also believe that Mr. Reza Pahlavi is not a dictator; but will others allow him not to be?!

There is a possibility of returning the monarchy to Iran;  But will not continue

Hatem Qaderi: I do not consider Mr. Pezeshkian's arrival to be one of Mr. Khamenei's artistic endeavors.

What Mr. Khamenei wanted was something that happened in 2022.

Hatam Ghaderi: [Reza Pahlavi] Neither has Reza Khan's boots nor Reza Khan's boots can rule in Iran

  I think Mr. Reza Pahlavi says at the bottom of his heart, "Let us make our lives!"

Hatam Ghaderi: Mr. Reza Pahlavi wants to be a king or a sultan?!

  The things that are asked are not the kingdom

Hatam Ghaderi: Biosaa no longer responds to us

  My point is to find some - with specific competences, to give them power

Hatam Ghaderi: Our velayat-based life has not changed at all; however, we have undergone serious changes.

There will be no force that can bring the current plurality of society under control.

Hatem Ghaderi: Neither the Reza Shah model nor the Mohammad Reza Shah model can return to Iran

In a monarchy, the king is expected to rule.

Hatam Ghaderi: We thought we bid farewell to the reign of the year; But we continued to reproduce the same discourse

  In the Islamic Republic, we concentrated all power and gave it to one person

Hatam Ghaderi: Philosophy, religion and government system in Iran have a common form

In Iran, the king could have deprived us of the personal yogurt and give it to another

Hatam Qaderi: In the Constitutional Revolution, it was assumed that they could take control of power.

This matter, just like the republic, did not take flight; because it was unfamiliar to the mental framework of us Iranians.

Hatam Ghaderi: Some new studies show that human beings have not been seeking a government from the beginning

  The modern era has repeatedly questioned the monarchy

Hatam Ghaderi: I believe that the discourse that the monarchy had in Iran was reproduced again in 1979.

The monarchy and religion were two arms that could have the Iranian components in their support and representation.

Hatem Qaderi: The monarchy was - in a sense - a system that was intertwined with our culture, temperament, and semantic horizon.

The monarchy is one of the two bio -eternity
