 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
 * Comment -- If the claim that this book has inspired Iranian policy in Lebanon is correct, it will be a very significant work, but would be much better for being contextualised. WP is not the right place for book reviews; and this is not even a review.  Peterkingiron (talk) 16:45, 4 May 2020 (UTC)
 * Delete. The book fails WP:NBOOK. The Persian language sources listed in the article do not appear to show notability and I couldn't find any English language sources or book reviews. The article from the Iranian Students News Agency is a short piece about the publication of the book and Fars News Agency article is based off of that. MarkZusab (talk) 17:14, 10 May 2020 (UTC)

 * Comment This page has been deleted through AfD in Persian wikipedia fa:ویکی‌پدیا:نظرخواهی برای حذف/ساختار سیاسی اجتماعی لبنان و تأثیر آن بر پیدایش جنبش امل. MS   会話  04:53, 14 May 2020 (UTC)
 * Delete. I can't find any reason to believe this satisfies WP:NB. The sources that are accessible seem to be brief blurbs (based on a press release?) and none of the sources seem obviously reliable. I haven't been able to find any better sources. The usual caveats that I don't speak Persian and that there may be better Persian-language sources apply, but the fact that the Persian Wikipedia (whose notability guideline for books seems to be very similar to our own) chose to delete the associated article there suggests to me that we're not missing anything substantial. – Arms & Hearts (talk) 17:31, 16 May 2020 (UTC)
 * Delete. Not seeingany reviews in English, and the coverage in other languages, from what I can translate, is very marginal; so this seems to fail WP:NBOOK. --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus&#124; reply here 01:20, 19 May 2020 (UTC)
