Ayatollah Khomeini himself appears to have instigated the impeachment, which he signed the next day.Even before Ayatollah Khomeini had signed the impeachment papers, the Revolutionary Guard had seized the Presidential buildings and gardens, and imprisoned writers at a newspaper closely tied to Banisadr. Banisadr chronicled his experiences during the Revolution, providing detailed accounts of the dynamics between political factions, the clergy, and revolutionary leaders.
He critically examined the structure of political system, arguing that the lack of checks and balances threatened both democracy and social justice. Banisadr remained interested in development economics, often emphasizing the need for policies that balance state intervention with market freedom to benefit ordinary citizens. His works remain essential reading for anyone studying post-revolutionary history, offering a perspective that is both personal and analytical.
