Résumé anglais An Autopsy of the Two Iranian Elections of 2016 With the announcement of results from the two Iranian elections held on 26 February 2016, the “reformist” and “moderate” coalition and the “fundamentalists” alike claimed victory. Yet the composition of the new expert Assembly and new Parliament reveal a reality that is quite different from that proclaimed by each camp. It shows how the Vienna Accord (July 2014), which exacerbated the issues at stake in these two elections, particularly with the approach of the 2017 presidential election, has rendered the electoral context even more complex. On the face of it, the “fundamentalists'” most powerful electoral weapon – the guided shortlisting of candidates – has run out of steam. With just ten months left to go before the presidential election, the latter now appear powerless. In this context and given the political division that has resulted from these two elections, one cannot rule out the possibility of regime crisis. In order to avoid a repeat of the post-election protest of June 2009, this crisis might lead to the establishment of a parliamentary regime by way of constitutional change. ■
