Integrated Analysis of U.S.–Iran Relations, Hegemonic Shifts and Middle Eastern Dynamics: A Review

 The fifteen sources reviewed in this project collectively examine U.S. foreign and domestic policy, Iran’s international posture, and broader Middle Eastern dynamics. Although they range from case studies on energy security and think tank politics to literature reviews on regional discord, a set of interconnected themes emerges. This integrated analysis draws connections across the sources, showing how declining U.S. hegemony, domestic political forces and regional realignments influence each other. Rather than summarizing each study in isolation, the narrative traces how the topics intersect and reinforce broader geopolitical trends.
