Dr. Zahedi earned his Ph.D. in Politics from the New School for Social Research with a concentration in Political Theory. His work stands at the crossroads of theoretical reflection and historical analysis. Currently, his research concerns the critique of ideology, particularly as it relates to social revolutions, and a reexamination of Marxist theories of imperialism. His doctoral dissertation, entitled “From National Liberation to Social Revolution: Class Struggle, Anti-Imperialism, Ideology, and the Socialist Movement in Iran,” deals with these questions through an analysis of the experience of the socialist movement in the Iranian Revolution.
Before teaching at Morgan State, Dr. Zahedi taught at a number of institutions, including The New School, City College of New York, West Chester University of Pennsylvania, Maryland Institute College of Art, and Johns Hopkins University.
