The new political environment began to shape the religious and social identities of the next generation through Zoroastrian institutions such as the 'anjomans' (councils) as well as those established by the government of the Islamic Republic.

The views expressed are informed by the changes that took place during that time and throw light on subjects as diverse as education, emigration, conversion and religious reform.
