On July 1st, 2016 an interesting new think tank was founded
called The Center for the Study of Monarchy, Traditional
Governance, and Sovereignty. The Center is a part of The
International Strategic Studies Association (ISSA) which
describes itself as a research NGO. The new Center's mission
is to "study the impact, philosophies, and lessons to be
derived from various forms of monarchical governance,
traditional forms of governance related to specific societies,
and the question of sovereignty and the nation and nation-
state." The Center's short form name is The Zehedi Center
and is named after the former prime minister of Iran,
Fazlollah Zahedi.

Prince Ermias Sahle-Selassie The Zahedi Center's patrons are
former ambassador Ardeshir Zahedi
and His Imperial Highness Prince
Ermias Sahle Selassie Haile Selassie.
Ermias Sahle Selassie is ninth in line
to the vacant Throne of Ethiopia and
the current President of the Ethiopian
Crown Council.
The Zahedi Center already has a few
research publications available
and more can be expected as time
goes on, I am sure.

Needless to say I am excited about this new initiative. It has
been almost two years since I first noted the sad lack of
academic attention paid to monarchy. While I am happy to
have found more studies on monarchy since then, they still
amount to only a handful. This new centre will undoubtedly
increase our understanding of humanity's oldest government
forms.
I will be looking over the research published already by the
Zahedi Center in the next installment of this series.
