Abstract :
The present study aims to investigate how the women’s subjectivity in the formation of the Islamic revolution discourse based on Laclau and Mouffeʼs theory of discourse. A qualitative and heuristic research method is used. Sampling is based on the theoretical sampling method. The results show that women in the discourse of the Islamic revolution played a strategic and creative role and used various methods to fight. In the subjectivity position, a high degree of correlation is formed among women with different thoughts, attitudes, and social origins. In this situation, women avoid the present conditions and the values governing them and establish an ideal status under the discourse of Islamic revolution. Part of women's subjectivity in the revolutionary fight is related to the revolutionary status of society. One of the most noticeable examples of women active in establishing new discourse is correlated to the development of Hijab among women. The new identity for women not completely different from what was defined before but also it is rethinking and revising about the modern and traditional discourse that is presented based on the new indices.
