To explore how the conceptualization of national identity influences the international relations of a state, this book has explored the international relations of Iran as a case study, using the elite discourse analysis of the Iranian president Ahmadinejad between 2011-2012 which includes 170 speeches. It examines national identity through contemporary peace theories to see where national identity restricts or helps the development of a nations state´s international relations.
