The book “Islamic Republic of Iran’s Environmental Diplomacy in the Caspian Sea” has explained Iran's diplomacy to protect the environment of the Caspian Sea. The author of the book, in the framework of the SWOT method, has offered the strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats of Iran’s environmental diplomacy in the Caspian Sea. Concerning the conclusion of the book, the author offers suggestions for strengthening Iran’s diplomacy. The author of the book tries to acquaint the readers with the situation of Iran’s environmental diplomacy in the Caspian Sea, and for this reason, it has many advantages. But at the same time, it has many weaknesses. The weaknesses of the book can be divided into two parts: form and content. Writing and editing problems and the lack of a conclusion section are the most important formal weaknesses, and the incorrect implementation of the SWOT method and ambiguity in the application of the concept of diplomacy are the most important content weaknesses of the book. Removing these weaknesses can lead to improving the quality of the book. In this article, with a critical approach, an attempt has been made to introduce the book "Environmental Diplomacy of the Islamic Republic of Iran in the Caspian Sea" and its advantages and to point out weaknesses of the book to be considered by its author in the next editions.

The process of globalization has created many challenges for countries. Small countries, meanwhile, face more challenges, because they are more influential and vulnerable communities. Researchers have published various articles and books about this issue and have tried to explain the situation of countries in the process of globalization, and their actions to resolve the problems and challenges of globalization. With this approach, the author of the book "The Gulf States in International Political Economy" has tried to explain the position of the GCC members in the international economy in the era of globalization. This book examines and analyzes the actions of small countries in the Persian Gulf to adapt to globalization and global conditions. In this article, with a critical review of this book, we have tried to examine and introduce its strengths and weaknesses. This study shows that the author of the book has provided valuable analysis of the policies and actions of the small the Persian Gulf countries to improve their position in the international economy. But, at the same time, the book has numerous formal and content weaknesses, especially its translated text.
