''Rahbar'' ((ペルシア語:رهبر), 'Guide') was an Iranian Persian language daily newspaper, published from Tehran.〔Abrahamian, Ervand. ''(Iran between Two Revolutions )''. (): Princeton University Press, 1982. p. 299〕〔Atabaki, Touraj, and Solmaz Rustamova-Towhidi. ''(Baku Documents: Union Catalogue of Persian, Azerbaijani, Ottoman Turkish and Arabic Serials and Newspapers in the Libraries of the Republic of Azerbaijan )''. London: Tauris Academic Studies, 1995. p. 241〕 It was the central organ of the communist Tudeh Party of Iran.〔Abrahamian, Ervand. ''(Iran between Two Revolutions )''. (): Princeton University Press, 1982. p. 299〕 The decision to launch ''Rahbar'' was taken at the First Party Conference held in October 1942, after that Abbas Iskandari, the editor of erstwhile central organ of the party ''Siasat'', had been expelled from the party.〔Abrahamian, Ervand. ''(Iran between Two Revolutions )''. (): Princeton University Press, 1982. p. 285〕〔''(History of the Tudeh Party of Iran )''〕 In the initial phase of ''Rahbar'' the Tudeh Party was not officially a communist party, and the editorial line of the newspaper was non-communist constitutionalism.〔Atabaki, Touraj. ''(Azerbaijan: Ethnicity and the Struggle for Power in Iran )''. London: I.B. Tauris Publishers, 2000. p. 72〕 During the years of the Second World War, ''Rahbar'' (and other Tudeh organs) focused on anti-fascist and pro-peace agitation.〔Gheissari, Ali. ''(Iranian Intellectuals in the 20th Century )''. Austin: Univ. of Texas Press, 1998. p. 65〕 Iraj Eskandari served as the editor-in-chief of ''Rahbar''.〔''(Encyclopaedia Iranica )''〕 As with the other two key publications of the party (''Mardom'' and ''Razm'') it was edited by a member of the Tudeh parliamentary faction in the Majles.〔Abrahamian, Ervand. ''(Iran between Two Revolutions )''. (): Princeton University Press, 1982. p. 202〕 In June 1943 the trade union organization led by the Tudeh Party, the Central Council of Unions of Iran, decided to adopt ''Rahbar'' as their main organ, substituting the union publication ''Giti'' until the re-launching of a separate trade unionist newspaper. From June 21, 1943 onwards ''Rahbar'' carried a section titled "the party and the workers".〔Ladjevardi, Habib. ''(Labor Unions and Autocracy in Iran )''. Contemporary issues in the Middle East. Syracuse, N.Y.: Syracuse University Press, 1985. p. 34〕 When ''Rahbar'' celebrated its anniversary it sold 60,000 copies, almost reaching the levels of the main newspaper of the country, ''Ettela'at''.〔Abrahamian, Ervand. ''(Iran between Two Revolutions )''. (): Princeton University Press, 1982. p. 292〕 In the oil-rich areas in southern Iran, the Anglo-Iranian Oil Company and local authorities enforced a ban on reading and distributing ''Rahbar''.〔 Workers caught reading or selling the paper were usually dismissed from their employments.〔Ladjevardi, Habib. ''(Labor Unions and Autocracy in Iran )''. Contemporary issues in the Middle East. Syracuse, N.Y.: Syracuse University Press, 1985. p. 123〕 On 23 August 1945 ''Rahbar'' was shut down by the orders of a military commandant in Tehran.〔Atabaki, Touraj. ''(Azerbaijan: Ethnicity and the Struggle for Power in Iran )''. London: I.B. Tauris Publishers, 2000. p. 84〕 The publication of ''Rahbar'' (as well as the labour newspaper ''Zafer'') was again suspended by the government on December 8, 1946, citing the attacks of the paper against the pro-American policies of the Iranian government. The ban was however lifted by the end of the month.〔Ladjevardi, Habib. ''(Labor Unions and Autocracy in Iran )''. Contemporary issues in the Middle East.
