If one looks at the pronouncements made about two years ago following on from the period after the post-election violence from five years ago, there was this articulation of the view that there was a need to sort of be more stringent with regard to the commitment to the ideals and values of the revolution. That's one discourse that is certainly active there.
I'm not saying it's linked to it, but then it was linked to the education sector in terms of the way the education sector was, I think, modified through admission policies to keep women out. The way economic freedom was dealt with and the way some curriculum was purged or revised is one discourse there.
In regard to the executions, however, the dominant claim that I come across from Iranians I speak to is the balance between the reformists and those who oppose reforms. So as a tactic to perhaps discourage the current president and his proclamations and expressions for reform last year, that's one element of it. The other element is, the reforms to the penal code may have actually enabled a speedy execution process by certain procedural issues. Really, it's not very clear to me exactly what is behind this, but the judiciary are the ones leading this trend, and its reforms are in the judiciary. It's a dialogue with them; it's their accountability or whatever that will enable people to address this issue.
