Homa Katouzian: A Bio-Bibliography
Mohamad Tavakoli-Targhi
This special issue of Iran Nameh is dedicated to Dr. Mohamad Ali Homayoun (Homa) Katouzian for his lifetime service to Iranian Studies. Born on 17 November 1942 in Tehran to Maryam and Mohamad Hadi Katouzian, he graduated from Alborz High School (formerly American College) in June 1960. During the same year, he was admitted to the University of Tehran’s Medical School. After a year at the University of Tehran, he changed course and decided to move to England to study economics. Katouzian completed his undergraduate studies in Economics at the University of Birmingham in 1967. In the same year, he began his graduate studies at the University of London receiving an M.Sc. in Economics in 1968. Immediately after graduation from the University of London in 1968, Katouzian was offered a lecturer position at Leeds University, which he accepted. He was then hired in 1969 as a Lecturer in Economics (Assistant Professor) at the University of Kent at Canterbury, where he was tenured in 1971 and promoted to Senior Lecturer (Associate Professor). In the fall of 1972 he taught at the newly-reorganized Pahlavi University as a Visiting Professor of Economics. In 1973 he served as Senior Associate Member of St. Antony’s College, where he was later appointed as a Visiting Iranian Fellow in 1975-1976. Subsequently, he served as Economic Consultant to the Organization of American States (1976), the Iran Planning Institute (1977), the International Labour Organization (1980), and the United Nations Conference of Trade and Development (1982).
In addition to these appointments, he served as Visiting Professor of Economics at McMaster University (1978/1978) in Hamilton, Ontario, at the University of California Los Angeles (1985), and at the University of California San Diego (1990). Additionally, he was a Visiting Scholar at the Princeton Institute for Advanced Study in 2001. Katouzian retired from the University of Kent in 1986 and moved permanently to Oxford, where he has been affiliated with the Faculty of Oriental Studies and the Middle East Centre at St. Antony’s College. Currently, he is the Iran Heritage Foundation Research Fellow at St. Antony’s College, a position that he has held since 2004.
Katouzian has a distinguished record of scholarly service. In addition to serving on the editorial boards of Research in the History of Economic Thought and Methodology (1982-2005), Comparative Economic Studies (1989-1992), Comparative Studies of South Asia, Africa and the Middle East (2003-2012), and Iran Nameh (2010-2016), since 2006 he co-edited the Routledge Iranian Studies book series, which has published over 30 monographs by a mostly younger generation of Iranian Studies scholars. In 2004, Katouzian was selected as the Editor of Iranian Studies: Journal of the International Society for Iranian Studies. With editorial foresight, dedication and tireless effort, he transformed Iranian Studies from an irregularly published quarterly into a highly reputable ISI journal. By increasing the frequency of Iranian Studies to 6 volumes per year, he opened the journal to a wider range of scholarship and to a younger generation of scholars.
Katouzian has been a prolific multidisciplinary scholar. Trained as an economist, much of his earlier writings were in this field. In addition to theoretical articles on economic methodology, the service sector and stages of economic development, which he wrote in the 1970s, he wrote stellar essays on Iranian labor force statistics, the agricultural sector, land reform, economic development, and the political economy of oil. In 1974 he wrote a college textbook in Persian entitled International Economic Theory (نظریه اقتصاد بینالمللی). He also translated into Persian Herbert Butterfield’s Universities and Higher Education Today (Pahlavi University Press, 1974), and Adam Smith’s The Wealth of Nations (Amir Kabir, 1979), both of which included his substantial introductions. The publication of his monographs on Ideology and Method in Economics (1980) and The Political Economy of Modern Iran (1981) were the culmination of his dual engagement with methodological questions in the discipline of economics and the problems of economic and political development in Iran. His first monograph was praised as “one of the first truly critical applications of recent philosophy of science to the history of economic thought and methodology.”[1] [1] Critical of “mechanistic and universalistic” approaches, Katouzian’s second monograph on Iran provided a unique conceptual and analytical account of modern Iranian political economy and its “petrolic despotism.” After a highly productive academic career, in 1984 he was awarded a Ph.D. in Economics from the University of Kent at Canterbury.
But Katouzian’s scholarly interests were not limited to issues of economic development and methodology. Describing his extra-economic interests in the preface to The Political Economy of Modern Iran, he recalled: “I am an Iranian economist, and since my childhood, I have been reading literally both in the ‘non-economic’ social sciences and in humanities.” In this preface, he further noted that he had written “a social and literary biography of the modern Iranian writer Sadiq Hedayat,” a monograph that was published in 1991 as Sadiq Hedayat: The Life and Legend of an Iranian Writer.
Katouzian’s parallel interests in political economy and literary politics have continued to the present day. While elaborating on his distinctive accounts of Iran’s “arid-isolatic society,” “arbitrary rule,” “petrolic despotism,” “the pick-axe society” (jami‘ah-i kulangi), and “the short-term society,” as the bibliography below demonstrates, he has continued to write on both modern and classical Persian literature, and composed biographies of Hasan Taqizadeh, Ahmad Kasravi, Mohammad Mossadeq and Khalil Maleki, among others. In addition to writing on modern politics and literature, he has consistently focused on historical change and processes. The historical orientation is most pronounced in his State and Society in Iran: The Eclipse of the Qajars and the Rise of the Pahlavis (2000), Iranian History and Politics: The Dialectic of State and Society (2003), and The Persians: Ancient, Medieval and Modern Iran (2009). It was for his impressive contribution to Iranian Studies that he was awarded the First Sina Outstanding Achievement Award for Exceptional Contributions in Humanities in 2013. This followed a 2004 Hedayat Heritage Prize for the Best Scholarship on Sadeq Hedayat’s Life and Work. The details of Katouzian’s scholarly works appear below.
