Cumrun Vafa personality type is ENTP, which is consistent with his lifelong ability to read between the lines.
He also happened to have an ISFJ personality type, which is rarer than ENTP. ISFJ personality types are often described as “the doormat of the world,” “the voice of reason,” and “the bringer of peace in the Middle East.”
According to Vafa, his ISFJ personality allowed him to see that in the Middle East people are anti-authoritarian in nature. They are willing to proclaim their dislike of authority in the West, but when they are in charge, they are extremely authoritarian. That is why he was puzzled by the degree to which his colleagues in the U.S. government were willing to tolerate the most authoritarian government in the world.
After he left his government job in Washington, D.C., Vafa decided to investigate what is really going on in the Middle East. He spent six years between 2006 and 2012 researching and writing his book, The Unraveling: Ethics and Foreign Policy After the Cold War (2013). He was published by Routledge, a division of Taylor and Francis.
Cumrun Vafa is an Iranian-American theoretical physicist and the Hollis Professor of Mathematics and Natural Philosophy at Harvard University.
