Abstract

In the perception of U. S. brazen hostility towards Iran, influence and ideology have often come into play especially focusing on interpretation of the facts and events. In this, the U.S. think tanks are significant in this regard since they possess great influence in the way events are collected and consolidated as well as policymakers are created. Such institutions often cover such a wide range of doctrines, and if there is no overriding animosity towards hawkish etc., where even a nudge can push the limit to antennas up for looking for solutions on engagement. In this article, we will investigate further, which performed all these functions and characterize the evolution of Iran’s policy in regard to the U.S. Through an examination of key players, influential reports, and the broader ideological contexts of specific policies, we intend to show the links between these organizations and how they shape political discourse and actual American foreign policy in one of the most important definitions of geopolitical space in the world finally.
