About this person
Abbasi is an officer in Iran's Revolutionary Guard, where he runs the Center for Borderless Security Doctrinal Analysis. His work spans theory and public argument across a wide range - military strategy, economic systems, historical interpretation, the mechanics of cinema. In 2011 he sat on the jury at the Fajr International Film Festival. Two years later he lectured at the International Conference on Hollywoodism, an event examining American film as ideology. The through-line is doctrine: how ideas move, how they're weaponized, how they shape what a society believes it sees.
